How to Cook Bulgur.


Bulgur is a grain made from cracked wheat that’s popular in Middle Eastern cuisine. It’s a great source of iron, vitamin B, manganese, and magnesium, and it’s also high in fiber. If you like your bulgur soft like rice, then boiling it is your best bet. However, if you prefer a chewier texture, such as for a salad or tabbouleh, then soaking it is the better option. Once your bulgur is cooked to perfection, add your desired seasonings. This versatile grain will take on any flavors you add to it.



Ingredients.

Boiling Bulgur : 1 1⁄3  c (320 mL) of water, 2/3 cup (180 g) of bulgur.

Soaking Bulgur : 1 cup (240 g) of bulgur, 2  c (470 mL) of boiling water.

Making Bulgur in a Slow-Cooker : Butter, oil, or non-stick cooking spray to grease slow-cooker.

1 cup (240 g) of bulgur, 2  c (470 mL) of water or milk.

Seasoning Bulgur.

2  tsp (9.9 mL) of oil or butter and 1/2 tsp (2.5 g) of kosher salt (for simple bulgur).

1 lemon, 2 teaspoons (9.9 mL) of olive oil, 1/4 cup (60 g) of chopped fresh mint, 1 cup (240 g) of chopped fresh parsley, 1 chopped tomato, and 1 chopped cucumber (for tabbouleh).

1 red bell pepper, 1/4 cup (60 g) of Kalamata olives, and 1/4 cup (60 g) of chopped sun-dried tomatoes (for Mediterranean bulgur).

1 chopped apple, 1/2 cup (120 g) of raisins, 1 tsp (5 g) of cinnamon, and 1/4 cup (60 g) of brown sugar (for breakfast bulgur).



Method 1 Boiling Bulgur.

1. Bring 1 1⁄3  c (320 mL) of water to boil in a sauce pan. You can use tap water or filtered water if you prefer. Measure out the water and add it to the pan. Then, turn the heat up to medium-high and bring the water to a boil.

Tip: For extra flavorful bulgur, use chicken, beef, or vegetable broth in place of water.

2. Stir in 2/3 cup (180 g) of bulgur and reduce the heat to medium-low. Use a wooden or metal spoon to stir the bulgur into the boiling water. Then, turn down the heat so that the water is just simmering instead of boiling.

You may want to stir the bulgur once every few minutes so it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pan or boil over.

3. Cover the pot and cook for 10-15 minutes. Place a tight-fitting lid on the pot and set a timer for 10 minutes. Check the bulgur to see if it has absorbed all of the water. If not, keep cooking the bulgur for up to 5 more minutes until all the water has been absorbed.

Pay attention to the bulgur while it cooks. If it starts boiling again, turn the heat down to low.

4. Let the bulgur sit for 10 minutes with the cover on before serving it. Once the water has been absorbed, turn off the heat. Leave the lid on the pot and set a timer for 10 minutes. The bulgur will be ready to eat after the time is up.

The bulgur will be very hot once it finishes cooking. If you want it chilled, place it into the refrigerator for 3 to 4 hours or longer.

Bulgur will keep well in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.



Method 2 Soaking Bulgur.

1. Place 1 cup (240 g) of bulgur in a heat-proof bowl. Measure out the bulgur and add it to a glass, ceramic, or metal bowl. Some plastic containers are also heat-proof. Check to see if your container is microwave safe before using it to soak the bulgur with boiling water.

Don’t place the bulgur in anything that might melt, such as a plastic or Styrofoam.

2. Pour 2  c (470 mL) of boiling water over the bulgur. Bring 2  c (470 mL) of water to boil in a tea kettle, pot, or microwave-safe container, such as a glass measuring cup. Then, pour the water over the bulgur.

If needed, stir the bulgur and water together to ensure that the bulgur is fully covered in the bowl.

3. Cover the bowl and let the bulgur sit for 20 to 30 minutes. Place a plate or tea-towel over the bowl to cover it completely. Then, set a timer for 20 minutes. Once the time is up, check to see if the bulgur is at the desired consistency. If it’s still too chewy, let it sit for longer.

If all of the water has been absorbed before the bulgur is fully cooked, add another 1⁄4  c (59 mL) of boiling water and stir it into the bulgur. Then, cover the bulgur again and let it sit for 5 more minutes.

Tip: As long as the bowl that you placed the bulgur into is microwave-safe, you can also microwave the bulgur with an extra 1⁄4  c (59 mL) of water to finish cooking it if it’s still too chewy.

4. Drain off any excess water after the bulgur is cooked. When the bulgur reaches the desired consistency, pour it into a colander over a sink to drain off the excess water. If there’s no excess water left in the bowl, you can skip this.

Store your extra bulgur in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.



Method 3 Making Bulgur in a Slow-Cooker.

1. Grease the inside of the slow-cooker. Spread 2 to 3  tsp (9.9 to 14.8 mL) of butter or oil all over the inside of the slow-cooker with a basting brush or your fingertips, or spray it with non-stick cooking spray.

Opt for non-stick cooking spray if you’re trying to keep the fat and calories as low as possible.

2. Add 1 cup (240 g) of bulgur to the slow-cooker. Measure out the bulgur and pour it into the slow cooker. You can double or even triple the amount if desired. Just make sure to double or triple the liquid as well.

Tip: You can add bulgur to chilies, stews, and soups to make them heartier. Just make sure you balance the liquid in the recipe with the bulgur. Aim for a 2:1 ratio of water to bulgur if you want to absorb the liquid entirely, 3:1 if you want a thick stew, or 4:1 if you want a brothy soup.

3. Pour in 2  c (470 mL) of water or milk. Use water for lighter bulgur or add milk to give it a creamier texture. Measure out the water or milk an pour it over the bulgur.

You can also add extra ingredients to your slow cooker at this time if you want them cooked in with the bulgur.

4. Set the slow-cooker on low heat and cook for 6 to 8 hours. Place the lid on your slow cooker and turn the heat to low. Then, cook the bulgur for 6 to 8 hours or until the liquid is fully absorbed. Check it periodically to ensure that it does not get overcooked.

If you want the bulgur to cook faster, turn the heat up to high and cook it for 3 to 4 hours.

Add and extra 1⁄4 to 1⁄2  c (59 to 118 mL) of water to the slow cooker if the water gets low and the bulgur still isn’t cooked. You can always drain off the excess water if there’s too much.

If you have extra bulgur, store it in an air-tight container in the refrigerator. It will keep for up to 3 days.



Method 4 Seasoning Bulgur.

1. Add oil or butter and salt for a simple seasoning. If you want to enjoy the simple, nutty flavor of bulgur, keep the seasoning simple. Pour 2  tsp (9.9 mL) of oil over the bulgur, or mix in 2  tsp (9.9 mL) of butter while the bulgur is still warm so it will melt. Sprinkle 1/2 tsp (2.5 g) of salt over the bulgur and stir everything well.

Serve the bulgur as a side dish with chicken, fish, chili, or anything else you like.

2. Make tabbouleh with lemon, mint, parsley, tomatoes, and cucumbers. Pour the juice of 1 lemon and 2 teaspoons (9.9 mL) of olive oil over the bulgur and stir it together. Then, mix in 1/4 cup (60 g) of chopped fresh mint, 1 cup (240 g) of chopped fresh parsley, 1 chopped tomato, and 1 chopped cucumber in with the bulgur. Chill the tabbouleh for 2 hours or overnight.

Try serving the tabbouleh over lettuce with pita bread and hummus on the side for a complete meal.

3. Add peppers, olives, and sun-dried tomatoes for Mediterranean bulgur. Chop 1 red bell pepper, 1/4 cup (60 g) of Kalamata olives, and 1/4 cup (60 g) of chopped sun-dried tomatoes and stir them in with cooked bulgur. Serve while the bulgur is still warm or chill the bulgur overnight for a Mediterranean style bulgur dish.

Try having this bulgur recipe with a simple salad or steamed veggies.

4. Stir in apples, raisins, cinnamon, and brown sugar for breakfast bulgur. Add 1 chopped apple, 1/2 cup (120 g) of raisins, 1 tsp (5 g) of cinnamon, and 1/4 cup (60 g) of brown sugar to the bulgur after the bulgur is cooked. Stir everything together and serve for breakfast.

Pair your bulgur with a cup of Greek yogurt and a glass of orange juice for a hearty breakfast.

Tip: Bulgur is versatile, so try swapping it in recipes that call for rice, couscous, millet, barley, or even pasta.



Question : Can I use bulgur wheat in a salad ?

Answer : Yes, bulgur wheat is a great salad addition. A good example is tabouli, a popular traditional Middle Eastern salad.

Question : Can I put raw bulgar in my soup while it's cooking?

Answer : You can do this but remember that it absorbs twice its volume in water. This means it will soak up the soup liquid and you'll need to replace that to ensure it remains a soup and doesn't turn into a stew. Try a little the first time you do this with your soup recipe, and gradually adjust it each time you make the soup until you get the amount just right. Or, use a recipe which gives exact amounts of bulgar wheat to add.

Question : What is bulgar wheat?

Answer : Bulgar or bulgur wheat is the wheat kernel with the bran portion removed. The kernel is steamed, dried and ground into different grades of coarseness to finish the product. The grain that results is golden-brown in color.

8 Ways to Cook Cheap Steak.

If we had it our way, we’d be eating porterhouse and ribeye for dinner every night of the week. Then again, if we had it our way, pay day would be every day and bourbon—all of the bourbon everywhere—would be free. Unfortunately, we hardly ever get to have it our way. We pay for our bourbon, we wait patiently for Friday, and when our wallets wince at ribeye, we settle for some of the “lesser” cuts of beef: Flank, brisket, London broil, hanger, chuck eye, etc. But there’s always a way to eat it without breaking your bank or some teeth in the process.

London Broil (Top Round) with Herb Butter.
Top round, also popularly called London Broil, is one of the cheapest cuts of steak money can buy, but it’s one of our favorites because of its availability and because it’s so damn easy to prepare if you know what you’re doing. This recipe calls for a skillet, but would do just fine on a conventional grill, too. The steak gets a simple marinade of soy sauce, Worcestershire, lemon juice, olive oil, beef bouillon, salt, and pepper, and the herb butter really sets it off with chives, parsley, tarragon, and lemon juice (we like to throw in some fresh garlic, too).
When it comes to cheaper cuts, preparation and marinating is important as cooking. Do not forget to add the lemon juice and soy sauce to the marinade, make sure you’re marinating it for long as possible (up to one day), and make sure you’re cutting against the grain so it stays tender.

Slow Cooked Wine Braised Beef Brisket.
Another extraordinarily inexpensive cut, brisket is cut from the breast and lower chest of the cow. Because it is such a dense muscle that works hard, it is chock full of connective tissue and must be cooked perfectly for it to be worthwhile. That’s exactly why the low-and-slow technique of a slow cooker suits it so well.
This particular recipe calls for tomato paste, onions, carrots, Worcestershire, garlic, and a little liquid smoke and chili powder to keep things flavorful. But most importantly, it calls for red wine. The alcohol in the red wine helps soften all that connective tissue, and the slow cooking process over the span of 10-12 hours leaves this dish incredibly tender and juicy, as well as exceptionally flavorful.

Texas-Style Smoked Brisket.
We’re giving brisket two spots on the list not because it’s a great of a cut, but because we’d be remiss not to include a smoked brisket recipe here. Another low and slow process of cooking—but one that yields an entirely different kind of meal—this Texas-style barbecue recipe is superb. It’ll take you a little longer to set up, and you may need to get creative if you don’t have a dedicated smoker, but in the end, it’s totally worth it. The best part is prepping the meat takes almost nothing, save for a little salt and pepper. Why? Because like most smoked barbecue, your brisket will pick up the majority of its flavor from the hickory/oak/apple wood chunks you’ll be using. Trust us when we tell you that if done properly, this is probably some of the best meat you’ll ever have in your life, let alone best brisket.

No-Nonsense Chuck Eye Steak.
Chuck steak covers a lot of area on a cow, and you’ll find everything from shoulder meat right on through to the ribs. The “chuck eye” cut isn’t a very common cut, but when you can find it, it’s an incredible piece of meat that comes at a low cost. While ribeye is cut from ribs 6-12 on a cow, the chuck eye steak is cut from the fifth. It’s a little smaller and admittedly not as tender or flavorful as the rib eye, but it’s called “The Poor Man’s Rib Eye” for a reason. For a fraction of what you’d get a normal rib eye, you can have a wonderfully tender everyday steak to rival it.
Like other steaks, we prefer this in red-hot cast-iron skillet, liberally seasoned with kosher salt, black pepper, and rubbed down with olive oil. We also advocate some healthy butter basting, with some thyme, rosemary, and a clove or two of garlic for good measure.

Pan Seared Flat Iron (Top Blade) Steak With Peppercorns and Blue Cheese Butter.
Of all the steaks on this list, the flat iron probably has the most interesting story. It was developed by a team of researchers at the University of Nebraska and University of Florida who were tasked with figuring out what to do with an otherwise unusable cut of beef from the cow shoulder. The cut showed good marbling and proved tender, but was marred by a massive piece of tough connective tissue that ran directly through the middle of the cut. The research team found a way to cut the tissue out, and so was born the Flat Iron (also known as the Top Blade).
It looks a lot like top round and can be prepared and cooked as such, but this recipe for peppercorn-crusted flat iron steak slathered in blue cheese butter is absolutely delicious. This cut of steak is incredibly tender, and cooked medium rare, delivers some of the most enjoyable steak experiences you’ll ever have—on a budget or not.

Classic Braised Beef Short Rib.
Beef short rib can come in a couple different cuts; smaller cubes, longer strips, bone-in, and boneless. What we love most about this inexpensive cut is that for all intents and purposes, it doesn’t matter how you buy it because no matter what you do with it, it’s sure to be delicious. While you can definitely season and grill beef short ribs like any other cut of beef, we’re big fans of braised short rib because it’s easy to do and yields melt-in-your-mouth tender steak.
If you’re looking for a more no-fuss recipe, there are plenty of slow cooker braised short rib recipes out there, but we love this recipe because try as we might, we can’t find a single thing wrong with it. Your base is a mix of onion, garlic, beef broth and a little Worcestershire sauce, and even though it takes about 3 hours to cook, it’ll quickly make its way to the top of your favorite steak dishes list.

Grilled Mojo-Marinated Skirt Steak.
Another very cheap cut of steak, most people complain that skirt steak is just too tough for anything other than use in a fajita or some kind of steak taco. And hey, we love steak tacos as much as the next hombres, but this is still incorrect. When it comes to skirt steak, it’s really all about how you marinade the cut, how you cook the cut, and how you slice the cut.
This recipe calls for a mix of homemade mojo with olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, salt, chopped cilantro, and a mix of both lime and fresh-squeezed orange juice. Keep in mind that citrus is super important, because it’ll soften up all that rough connective tissue. Let it marinate overnight, and grill it accordingly—high heat, flipping occasionally. The recipe also involves creating a pan sauce with the leftover marinade, which we aren’t opposed to.

Barbecued Tri-Tip.
Tri-tip is another particularly low cost cut of beef that we pick up any time we see it. The only issue is that it may be incredibly difficult to find for you non-West Coasters out there. But, if you can find it, this will quickly become your favorite cut because it’s very thick, very well-marbled, and offers up exactly the kind of flavor you think of when you dream about a fresh grilled steak. It’s cut from the bottom sirloin part of the cow, and is famous for being incredibly versatile and tender. In the Santa Maria valley of Southern California where this steak became famous, it is usually smoked with red oak, but this classic rub of salt, pepper, garlic, cumin, and a hint of coriander would also do well on the grill. All you need to do is liberally rub the seasoning over the steak, and cook it your preferred way.

How to Cook Barley.


Barley is a nutty-flavored cereal grain high in fiber and many important minerals. It pairs well with a range of savory flavors, and can be fermented to produce alcohol. Depending on how it's cooked, barley may have a soft or chewy texture. Try the basic cooking method for plain barley below, or experiment with baked barley, barley soup, and barley salad.



Ingredients.

Making Basic Barley.

1 cup (250 ml) pearl or hulled barley.

2 to 3 cups (500 to 750 ml) water.



Preparing Baked Barley.

1 Tbsp (15 ml) butter, 1 cup (250 ml) uncooked hulled barley.

1/2 tsp (2.5 ml) salt.

2 cups (500 ml) boiling water, 1 Tbsp (15 ml) chopped fresh parsley.



Cooking Barley Soup.

2 Tbsp (30 ml) butter, 1 onion, diced.

2 stalks celery, diced.

1 carrot, peeled and diced.

2 cloves garlic, minced.

1 lb (450 g) dried mushrooms, chopped.

1 Tbsp (15 ml) flour, 2 qts (2 L) beef or vegetable broth.

1 cup (250 ml) uncooked whole barley, 2 tsp (5 ml) salt.



Tossing Barley Salad.

2 cups (500 ml) cooked barley, 1/2 cup (125 ml) tomatoes, chopped.

1/4 cup (60 ml) red onion, chopped.

1 cup (250 ml) feta cheese, crumbled.

2 Tbsp (30 ml) red wine vinegar, 1/2 cup (125 ml) olive oil.





Method 1 Making Basic Barley.

1. Place the water and barley in a large pot. Combine both ingredients in a large saucepan, making sure the water covers the barley completely.

You can also substitute broth for water and add salt (to taste) for enhanced flavor, but neither option is necessary.

2. Bring the water to a boil. Place the saucepan on the stove and bring the water to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, cover the saucepan with a lid.

Note that the barley may produce a lot of foam and threaten to boil over the saucepan. Stirring the barley and watching it closely should help minimize the risk of accidental spills.

3. Reduce the heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Pearl barley may finish within 25 minutes, while hulled barley will usually require up to 45 minutes.

If the water boils away prematurely, add more about 1/2 cup (125 ml) at a time.

4. Cook until all of the water has been absorbed. The barley should triple in volume and be soft, yet chewy.

You may need to test the barley every 5 minutes or so near the end of the cooking process until it reaches your desired consistency.

5. Turn off the heat. Allow the barley to sit for 15 minutes without stirring, so that it can continue absorbing any excess water.

If there's still excess after letting the barley sit, you may need to drain the water away.

6. Enjoy. Add the cooked barley to salad or soup, or toss with spices and oil for a delicious side dish.



Method 2 Preparing Baked Barley.

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Grab a 1-1/2 to 2 quart (1-1/2 to 2 L) oven-safe baking dish. A glass or ceramic one with a lid is ideal.

2. Pour two cups of water into a saucepan. Bring the water to a boil on the stove over high heat.

Note that you may also boil the water in a tea kettle.

3. Place the barley in the baking dish. Pour the boiling water over the barley. Stir to combine.

4. Stir in the butter and salt. Make sure that it is well-combined, then cover the dish with its lid.

If you do not have a lid for your baking dish, cover it tightly with aluminum foil.

5. Bake for 60 minutes. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for one hour. Place it on the center rack for best results.

6. Remove the dish from the oven. Lightly fluff the finished barley with a spoon or fork. Spoon it into a serving dish and serve alongside a main course.



Method 3 Cooking Barley Soup.

1. Melt the butter in a large stockpot over medium heat. Meanwhile, prepare your vegetables.

Prepare the onions, carrots, and celery by chopping them into bite-sized pieces.

Prepare the mushrooms by soaking them in hot water. Note that this should be done about 30 minutes in advance. Strain the water, the chop the mushrooms.

2. Add the onions, carrots and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent, about five minutes.

3. Stir in the minced garlic. Cook the mixture for two minutes more, stirring frequently to prevent the garlic from burning.

4. Add the mushrooms. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms are soft. This should take another five minutes or so.

5. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables. Lower the heat to medium-low, and sprinkle the flour evenly over the vegetables. Stir the mixture every 30 second for roughly five minutes or until everything seems sticky, thick, and well-coated.

6. Gradually pour the broth into the pot. Turn the heat to medium high and add the broth about 1 cup (250 ml) at a time, stirring to combine well. Bring the soup to a slow boil once all of the broth is added.

Adding the broth gradually should make it easier for the flour to incorporate itself into the liquid, thereby thickening it. Adding the broth all at once may result in clumps or an unevenly thin consistency.

7. Stir in the barley and the salt. Allow the liquid to reach a boil again, then cover the stockpot.

8. Reduce the soup to a simmer. Allow it to cook for one hour, stirring occasionally. The soup is ready to serve when the barley is tender and the soup has thickened.

If desired, you can adjust the seasonings near the end of the cooking time. Consider adding more salt or sprinkling in some chopped parsley as desired.

9. Enjoy. Serve the finished soup while it is still fresh and hot.



Method 4 Tossing Barley Salad.

1. Cook one cup of barley. Follow the instructions for "Basic Barley."

Combine 1 cup (250 ml) uncooked barley with 3 cups (750 ml) water over medium-high heat.

Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer the barley for 30 minutes, or until soft.

Drain, then let the barley cool to room temperature before continuing.

2. Place the cooked barley in a bowl. Add the chopped tomatoes, chopped onion, and feta cheese. Toss well to combine.

3. Combine the red wine vinegar, oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Place these ingredients in a separate mixing bowl. Use a whisk to mix the ingredients for one minute, or until the dressing appears evenly combined.

4. Pour the vinegar dressing over the barley. Mix well with a spoon, making sure to coat the salad evenly with the dressing.

5. Serve. For the best taste and texture, enjoy the barley salad immediately after preparing it.

You can also wait for up to two hours before serving the barley salad. Leave it out at room temperature, and serve it at room temperature.





Question : Is barley healthy for you?

Answer : Yes, barley is a healthy addition to your diet. Barley is an excellent source of fiber, carbohydrates and protein. It contains many nutrients, minerals and vitamins, including B1, magnesium, selenium, phosphorous, niacin and copper. It can help lower cholesterol and inflammation.

Question : Can I cook pot barley like pearl barley?

Answer : No, pot, Scotch or unrefined/dehulled barley needs to be soaked before it can be boiled. It is more work than cooking with pearl barley but does have higher levels of nutrition.

Question : Does barley contain gluten?

Answer : Yes, barley contains gluten. It does not contain as much gluten as wheat but it still has some. When made into flour, barley produces a denser, less light baked good than you'd get using wheat, and many cooks prefer therefore to mix it with other flours rather than just use barley flour.

Question : What types of barley are there?

Answer : There are two types of barley you can buy––dehulled barley (also known as scotch or pot barley) and pearl or pearled barley. Dehulled barley is a whole grain which still contains the bran and germ and can be purchased as both whole, dry grain berries or ground into flour. It can also be purchased as flakes. Pearl or pearled barley is barley with the bran removed by polishing, then is steamed to make it easier to cook fast. Like dehulled barley, it can be purchased or made into flour as well and although pearled or pearl barely is not as nutritious as it is missing the bran, it is still very healthy.

Question : What salads can I add barley to?

Answer : Barley can be introduced to any grain-based salad, it can be made into tabbouleh in place of burghul wheat and can also be used instead of or with rice in rice-based salads. It is a nice, filling salad ingredient that is especially useful for vegetarians and vegans needing a protein boost.

Question : What does barley go well with?

Answer : Barley goes well with soups, stews and casserole dishes. It has a creamy texture that goes well with other ingredients like vegetables and meats, and it also absorbs flavors readily. It can also help thicken stews and soups, making it a hearty winter choice. Barley, when cooked and cooled, also makes an excellent salad base.

Question : Can I boil barley?

Answer : You can boil it just like rice, using 3 parts water to 1 part barley. You can boil it on the stovetop or in a rice cooker.

Question : How long should I cook barley in my pressure cooker?

Answer : I have successfully cooked mine in 15 minutes, but it depends on how soft you want your barley.

Question : The barley looks cooked in the vegetable barley soup recipe before adding to the stock and veg. It says use uncooked barley. Do I prep it first, or can I add it uncooked?

Answer : It works either way. The only consideration is if uncooked barley is added, the vegetables may turn out overcooked to a person's taste by the time the barley is tender. Using pre-cooked barley would allow the veggies to remain lightly cooked. Then there is also the matter of the barley being able to absorb more of the vegetable flavor during a longer cooking process. The bottom line is, you are the cook. Use these suggestions as a starting point, then do it as you want to.

Question : Is the barley used in these cooking methods "pearl"?

Answer : Yes. Most barely sold in grocery stores will be "pearl."
