Parsley | Tabouleh MY MOTHER’S TABOULEH Fresh parsley is a must. Research shows that high fiber bulghur (cracked) wheat may help prevent colon and breast cancers and diabetes. Make sure you buy cracked bulghur wheat, which is cooked, dried and cracked, and only needs to be reconstituted. Whole-wheat berries are sometimes labeled as bulghur – it’s the cracked, creamy tan looking grains you want to buy. The vegetables are also tasty mixed with cooked, chilled couscous. When vegetables are home grown, I don’t add lemon juice. 1 cup bulghur cracked wheat 6 tomatoes, chopped 1 bunch green onions, chopped 1 bunch parsley, chopped 1 bunch radishes, chopped 1 English cucumber, chopped 1 bell pepper, chopped 2-3 teaspoons cumin, or to taste Several sprigs mint leaves, chopped Several sprigs basil leaves, chopped Salt to taste ¼ cup Canola oil, or to taste Squeeze of fresh lemon juice if necessary Place wheat in bowl and rinse under cool water three times. Leave about ¼ inch water on top of wheat after third rinse. Let sit for 15 minutes or until water is absorbed. Squeeze to drain remaining liquid out. Meanwhile, mix vegetables together. Add cumin and herbs and mix. Add wheat, and mix. Add oil, a little at a time, and mix. Add salt, more cumin and lemon juice if you want. Serves 8-10. Enjoy tabouleh, a classic made with Parlsey.     We've got several other sites that we're hoping you'll like.
