Ingredients

1 cup bulgur wheat (fine-medium grind)
2 cups hot water
1 pound ripe tomatoes, seeded and chopped (about 2 cups)
1 bunch green onions, white and green part, finely chopped (about 1 cup)
1 hothouse cucumber, halved, seeded and diced (about 2 cups)
2 large bunches fresh flat-leaf parsley, leaves finely chopped (about 2 cups)
1 bunch fresh mint leaves, finely chopped (about 1/2 cup)
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 lemons, juiced
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Directions

Put the bulgur in a large bowl and pour in the hot water. Cover with a dish or plastic wrap and let stand for about 30 to 45 minutes to rehydrate. Drain in a strainer, pressing with the back of a wooden spoon to squeeze out as much water as possible.

In a mixing bowl, combine the tomatoes, onions, cucumber, parsley, and mint. Toss the salad well to incorporate the ingredients; season with cumin, salt and pepper. Add the bulgur; moisten with the lemon juice and olive oil. Fold everything together to incorporate the ingredients. The flavor will improve if the tabbouleh sits for a few hours. Serve at room temperature.

Great taste! High in calcium & vitamin K, too.
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

For a college nutrition class project my study group had to make presentations on nutrients and bring a sample food. I made... this recipe on behalf of my group, because parsley is very rich with calcium and vitamin K. The teacher and the 41 students in the class all thought the tabbouleh was delicious, as well as nutritious. Read more

Great recipe
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I served this tabbouleh with lamb to company last night and it was a hit. Even if you don't feel it's authentic enough for... you it's still an excellent salad.Read more

The Best
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is the best Tabouleh recipe I've had. Blows the boxed mixes out of the water. Better than most Taboulehs I have had in... Greek restaurants.Read more

Pretty good tabbouleh
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

It was pretty good, but I would lighten up on the celery and bump up the amount of bulgar. Pretty dense onion flavor....
