bulgur

Definition from Wikipedia:
Bulgur (ook: burghul of boergoel) is een graanproduct gemaakt van verschillende soorten tarwe, maar meestal van durum. De tarwekorrels worden eerst gestoomd daarna gedroogd en vervolgens grof gemalen of gebroken.
Example sentences:
Bulgur wordt gebruikt in pilafs, soepen, gebak en brood en als vulling. De bekendste toepassing van Bulgur is echter in tabouleh en kibbeh. De hoge voedingswaarde maakt het een goede vervanger voor rijst of couscous. In India wordt het ook gebruikt als ontbijtgraan, bereid met melk en suiker. (Wikipedia)
