Bulgur can be served as as substitute to rice, bind meatballs, used to stuff veggies, or to prepare sweet or savoury porridges. To prepare by soaking, simply pour two cups of boiling water into a bowl with one cup of bulgur wheat and let sit for an hour while the grains absorb the water. Fluff with a fork when done. To prepare using the stovetop method, bring two cups water to a boil in a saucepan. Pour in one cup bulgur, add some salt, and either a tab of butter or drizzle of olive oil. Cook bulgur for 15 minutes or until the water is absorbed and bulgur is light and fluffy. Strain any excess liquid. If adding to a soup, simply pour some of bulgur in and let it absorb the flavourful broth.
