Buckwheat Bulgur

A New Pilaf for the Table with Buckwheat Bulgur

Buckwheat bulgur is a coarse-grained product made from buckwheat kernels and cooked like bulgur. When cooked, the grains stay separate, offering a lightly toasted aroma and a soft yet firm texture. Used in place of the familiar wheat bulgur, it brings a different color and flavor to well-known recipes.

At Tufan Organik, we chose this product for those looking for an alternative for their bulgur dishes. Stirring the grains in a dry pan for a few minutes before cooking brings out their aroma. Adding about two measures of hot water or meat stock to one measure of bulgur is usually enough; cover with the lid and let it rest to steam.

Serving Suggestions
