LEBANESE TABBOULEH



Lebanese Tabbouleh image

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.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     easy, quick, salads and dressings, appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 6 appetizer spread servings, 4 salad servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup fine bulgur wheat
1 small garlic clove, minced (optional)
Juice of 2 large lemons, to taste
3 cups chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley (from 3 large bunches)
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
1/2 pound ripe tomatoes, very finely chopped
1 bunch scallions, finely chopped
Salt, preferably kosher salt, to taste
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 romaine lettuce heart, leaves separated, washed and dried

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.

Tips:

  • Fresh Herbs: Use the freshest herbs possible for the most flavorful tabbouleh. Curly parsley, mint, and cilantro are the classic herbs used, but you can also experiment with other herbs like basil, oregano, or thyme.
  • Soak the Bulgur Wheat: Soaking the bulgur wheat before cooking helps to rehydrate it and gives it a better texture. If you're short on time, you can use quick-cooking bulgur wheat, which doesn't require soaking.
  • Season to Taste: Taste the tabbouleh before serving and adjust the seasoning as needed. You may want to add more lemon juice, olive oil, salt, or pepper.
  • Serve Chilled: Tabbouleh is best served chilled, so make it ahead of time and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  • Garnish with Vegetables: Garnish the tabbouleh with fresh vegetables like chopped tomatoes, cucumbers, or bell peppers. This adds a pop of color and extra flavor.

Conclusion:

Tabbouleh is a refreshing and flavorful salad that's perfect for a summer lunch or dinner. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its vibrant flavors and textures, tabbouleh is a surefire crowd-pleaser. So next time you're looking for a healthy and delicious salad, give tabbouleh a try!
