I plan on making this tomorrow, have everything cut and ready to go. Just one question… is the bulgur supposed to be precooked or raw?
Raw, the bulgur gets “cooked” by sitting in the dressing, so it needs that time but it also comes out a little al dente which I like.
I made this for Shabbat.I forgot to buy celery and substituted hearts of palm for the celery.
I didn’t see your comment,Tamar, before I made it and I cooked the bulgur wheat. I wasn’t sure if it was supposed to be 1 cup raw or 1 cup cooked, so I split the difference and made it with 3/4 cup cooked.
It was very yummy and everyone seemed to enjoy it. I will definitely make it again.
I made it but tossed everything together just before serving. Reminded me of the tabouli salad I make usually minus the parsley and the pine nuts. Still it was a hit.
We made this for our Shabbat lunch this past Saturday and I didn’t see the reply either about not cooking the bulgur first. We enjoyed it cooked first anyway and my 7 month old grand-daughter was able to eat it. She loved the bulgur and the chickpeas. Great salad recipe.
