Steps:
- Wash the bulgur wheat and soak it in water for 5-7 minute. Drain very well (squeeze the bulgur wheat by hand to get rid of any excess water). Set aside.
- Very finely chop the vegetables, herbs and green onions as indicated above. Be sure to place the tomatoes in a colander to drain excess juice.
- Place the chopped vegetables, herbs and green onions in a mixing bowl or dish. Add the bulgur and season with salt. Mix gently.
- Now add the the lime juice and olive oil and mix again.
- For best results, cover the tabouli and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter. If you like, serve the tabouli with a side of pita and romaine lettuce leaves, which act as wraps or "boats" for the tabouli.
- Other appetizers to serve next to tabouli salad:Hummus; Baba Ganoush; or Roasted Red Pepper Hummus

CLASSIC TABBOULEH SALAD
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Put the bulgur in a medium bowl and sprinkle it with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Add the boiling water, cover, and let sit for 20 minutes (or up to 60 minutes depending on the brand) until softened.
- While the bulgar sits, make the dressing. Pulse the garlic in a food processor until minced, then add the olive oil and lemon juice and whirl into a dressing-like consistency. Or, whirl the olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic in a blender .
- Add the mint leaves, the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and the pepper. Blend until the mint leaves are well worked into the dressing and the dressing is more or less smooth. Taste and add more salt and pepper, if you like.
- Remove the parsley leaves from the stems; discard the stems or save them for another use. Roughly chop the leaves. Core, seed, and chop the tomatoes. Peel, seed, and chop the cucumber. Set aside.
- Check the bulgur: It should have absorbed all of the water, but there may be a bit in the bottom of the bowl. It should also be tender to the bite. If it's not, stir, cover, and let sit for 10 more minutes. If it's tender and there's water in the bowl, either drain the bulgur in a fine-mesh sieve or lift it out with a slotted spoon and into a separate bowl.
- Pour the dressing over the bulgur and toss to combine well. Add the parsley and toss to combine well. Add the tomatoes and cucumber and stir to mix.
- Serve immediately or cover and chill (up to overnight). Enjoy.

POMEGRANATE AND ALMOND TABBOULEH
Tabbouleh is a parsley and bulgur salad with roots in Middle Eastern cuisine. New Orleans chef Alon Shaya enlivens his version with herbs and spices such as fresh mint, garam masala, and allspice, in addition to almonds and bright pomegranate seeds.

Steps:
- Tabbouleh: Pull parsley leaves from stems; discard stems. Bunch the parsley leaves together, then coarsely chop. Add to a bowl, along with the almonds.
- Add 1 cup water and a pinch of salt to a small pot and bring to a boil. Add bulgur, stir, and turn off heat. Cover the pot with a towel and set aside, for at least 10 minutes and up to 20, to "bloom" the bulgar: it will absorb the water and soften.
- Pull mint leaves from stems. Stack the leaves, tightly roll, and thinly slice perpendicular to the roll to create thin ribbons. (This technique is called "chiffonade.") You should have about a tablespoon. Add mint to the bowl, followed by pomegranate seeds. Add the zest and juice of half a lemon to the bowl. Drizzle in olive oil and toss to coat. Dice onion and add to salad.
- Vinaigrette: In a small bowl, add olive oil, juice from remaining half of lemon, garam masala, and allspice. Season with a big pinch of salt, then whisk to combine. Drizzle the vinaigrette into the salad and stir. Add ¼ cup softened bulgur to the salad. (Chef Shaya prefers more parsley than bulgur, but you can adjust to your liking.) Serve at room temperature.

Steps:
- Boil the kettle. Put the bulgur wheat in a sieve and rinse with cold water until the water runs clear. Drain well and transfer to a mixing bowl. Pour over 200ml boiling water and 1 tbsp olive oil, cover with a plate and leave to soak for 30 mins. Meanwhile, put the couscous into a second mixing bowl with 1 tbsp olive oil, just cover with boiling water, then cover with a plate and leave to stand for 5-10 mins.
- Once the bulgur wheat and couscous are ready, put them in a mixing bowl and fluff up the grains with a fork. Stir through the nuts and dried fruit, too.
- Whisk together the lemon zest and juice, herbs, remaining olive oil and the garlic. Pour over the grains, nuts and fruit, and stir everything together well with some seasoning. Transfer to a serving plate, scatter with the crumbled feta, and serve with grilled lamb or pork chops, if you like.

LEBANESE TABBOULEH
We think of tabbouleh as a bulgur salad with lots of parsley and mint. But real Lebanese tabbouleh is a lemony herb salad with a little bit of fine bulgur, an edible garden that you can scoop up with romaine lettuce heart leaves or simply eat with a fork.

Steps:
- Place the bulgur in a bowl, and cover with water by 1/2 inch. Soak for 20 minutes, until slightly softened. Drain through a cheesecloth-lined strainer, and press the bulgur against the strainer to squeeze out excess water. Transfer to a large bowl, and toss with the garlic, lemon juice, parsley, mint, tomatoes, scallions and salt. Leave at room temperature or in the refrigerator for two to three hours, so that the bulgur can continue to absorb liquid and swell.
- Add the olive oil, toss together, taste and adjust seasonings. Serve with lettuce leaves.
