About Bulgar
Bulgur is a nutritious whole grain made from cracked wheat, commonly associated with Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine. It boasts a hearty texture and nutty flavor, making it a versatile base for dishes like tabbouleh, pilafs, and soups. Rich in complex carbohydrates, bulgur is a great source of energy and provides ample dietary fiber, which supports digestion and heart health. It also contains essential nutrients like manganese, magnesium, and iron, along with plant-based protein, making it a valuable addition to vegetarian and vegan diets. Low in fat and naturally cholesterol-free, bulgur can be part of a balanced diet that promotes overall wellness. Its low glycemic index makes it suitable for blood sugar management. Easily prepared by boiling or steaming, bulgur is not only healthy but also convenient for quick meals. However, those with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease should avoid it, as it is derived from wheat.
