Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup bulgur wheat
Coarse salt and ground pepper
2 tablespoons walnut oil
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 shallot, minced
1/2 pound halved and pitted fresh sweet cherries
1/2 cup chopped fresh herbs, such as tarragon, chives, and parsley
1/4 cup coarsely chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan with a tight-fitting lid, bring 2 cups water to a boil. Stir in bulgur and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook until water is absorbed and bulgur is tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in medium bowl, whisk together oil, lemon juice, and shallot; season with salt and pepper. Add bulgur and toss to combine. Refrigerate, uncovered, until cool, about 10 minutes.
  • Add cherries, herbs, and walnuts to bulgur mixture; toss to combine. Season again with salt and pepper. Serve.
