Bulgur is a cooked and dried wheat grain widely used in porridges, side dishes, and salads. Pilaf made from this grain is sometimes called bulgur. Bulgur doesn't require long cooking; it's most often dry-roasted in a pan and then steeped in boiling water. Stir in olive oil, diced dried apricots, and olives to create Mediterranean-style bulgur. A simple dish with vibrant, contrasting flavors is ready. Serve it on its own, as a vegetarian pilaf, or as a side dish with meat.
