Bulgur is a nutrient-rich whole grain made from cracked and partially cooked wheat, commonly used in Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and South Asian cuisines. Known for its mild, nutty flavor, it serves as a versatile base for dishes like tabbouleh, pilafs, and salads. Packed with dietary fiber, bulgur supports digestive health and enhances satiety, making it a great option for weight management. It’s also a source of essential nutrients like manganese, magnesium, iron, and B-vitamins, which contribute to energy production and overall well-being. Low in fat and cholesterol, bulgur is a heart-healthy food choice, especially when paired with fresh vegetables and lean proteins. However, as a wheat-based product, it contains gluten and is unsuitable for those with gluten intolerance or celiac disease. Its quick cooking time and adaptability make bulgur a staple in health-conscious meal plans around the globe.
