bulgur wheat
Parboiled cracked cereal
Bulgur wheat is wheat that has been parboiled, dried, and cracked into granules.
A staple of Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines, it appears in dishes like tabbouleh and kibbeh.
Because it's precooked, bulgur prepares quickly—just soaking or brief simmering: I made a bulgur wheat salad with tomatoes and mint.
