Once considered exotic, tabouleh is now popular for its strong, fresh

herbal flavor.

 

Place the bulgur in a heatproof casserole dish and cover it with 3 cups of

boiling water. Cover and let stand 30 minutes, or until the water has been

absorbed. Fluff with a fork and let cool to room temperature. Add all the

remaining ingredients and let stand at least 1 to 2 hours, refrigerated,

before serving. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
