What to know about bulgur wheat
Bulgur is wheat that has been parboiled, dried and cracked so it cooks in minutes, the backbone of tabbouleh and many pilafs. Being wheat, it is high in gluten and cannot go on a gluten-free plate. It is also high in fructans and rated high FODMAP, so a generous serving often brings on bloating and gas even for people whose gluten tolerance is fine.
Watch for
- High in gluten, so bulgur is unsafe for celiac disease and non-celiac gluten sensitivity
- High in fructans and high FODMAP, which commonly triggers bloating and gas, especially in a big bowl of tabbouleh
- Moderate on salicylates and oxalates, minor considerations next to the gluten and fructan load
