HOW TO COOK BULGUR

Steps:
- Combine bulgur, 1 1/2 cups water, salt, and a drizzle of oil in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer, then cover and cook over low heat until tender, about 12 minutes. Remove from heat; let stand, covered, 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Use immediately, or spread on a rimmed baking sheet to let cool.
BULGUR MAPLE PORRIDGE
Bulgur works beautifully as a morning cereal. The best method for making this is to submerge the bulgur in boiling water the night before, then cook the reconstituted grains in the milk in the morning. Maple syrup is my hands down favorite sweetening for any hot cereal; as for additions, I love the crunch of cashews or pecans, and I also love diced dried apricots or blueberries, or both.

Steps:
- The night before, place the bulgur in a medium saucepan with salt to taste (I suggest 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon) and stir to distribute the salt. Bring 1 cup water to a boil and pour over the bulgur. Cover with the lid and leave overnight.
- Add the milk to the pot and stir together with a wooden spoon. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring often, or for a thicker porridge stirring constantly, until the mixture has thickened like cream of wheat, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in the butter, maple syrup and apricots or blueberries if including and continue to stir until the blueberries begin to pop and bleed into the cereal. Serve sprinkled with toasted pecans or cashews if desired.

Steps:
- In a three-quart casserole, heat the oil. Add garlic and cook for a minute or so, until the garlic is soft but not brown. Add bulgur and cook over medium heat, stirring, until the bulgur is lightly toasted and coated with oil, about five minutes.
- Drain the tomatoes, crushing them lightly and reserving the liquid. Set the tomatoes aside and add enough chicken stock or water to the liquid to make three cups. Add this liquid to the bulgur along with the oregano, basil, marjoram and fennel seeds. Season to taste with salt. Mix well.
- Cover tightly and place over low heat for about 40 minutes until the liquid is absorbed and bulgur is tender.
- While the bulgur is cooking, slice the sausages. If some of it crumbles, that is all right. Place the sausage in a heavy skillet and cook over medium heat until lightly brown. Remove sausage from pan.
- Add onions and peppers to the pan and saute over medium heat until lightly browned. Return the sausage to the pan along with the tomatoes and cook just long enough to heat through.
- When the bulgur is tender, lightly mix it to fluff it. Spread the sausage, onions and tomato mixture over the bulgur in the casserole, sprinkle with parsley, cover and place over medium heat for five to 10 minutes until heated through.
- Serve with grated Parmesan cheese.

Tips:
- Cook the sausage thoroughly: Make sure the internal temperature of the sausage reaches 160°F (71°C) before serving.
- Use a non-stick skillet: This will help prevent the sausage from sticking and breaking apart.
- Add aromatics: Sautéing onions, garlic, or bell peppers along with the sausage will add flavor and depth to the dish.
- Season the sausage: Add your favorite spices or herbs to the sausage to enhance its flavor.
- Use fresh bulgur: Fresh bulgur will have a better texture and flavor than old bulgur.
- Rinse the bulgur: Rinsing the bulgur before cooking will remove any dirt or debris.
- Use the right ratio of bulgur to water: The ratio of bulgur to water will vary depending on the type of bulgur you are using. Be sure to follow the package directions.
- Cook the bulgur until it is tender: The bulgur should be tender but still have a slight bite to it.
