What is Bulgur salad with turnip juice?
Bulgur salad with turnip juice is a variation on Turkish kısır, made with fine bulgur softened with şalgam, then mixed with herbs, tomato paste, lemon and olive oil. The name can be misleading: Turkish şalgam is usually a tangy fermented drink made mainly from purple carrots, rather than plain turnip juice, and it gives the salad its distinctive savoury-sour edge.
The bulgur stays pleasantly chewy, while herbs and lemon keep the dish fresh and bright. In Turkey, kısır is often served as a light meal, at a tea gathering or alongside other small dishes; it also works well as a picnic salad. It provides carbohydrates and fibre, with vegetables adding freshness. For a lighter version, use a little less oil and add extra herbs or chopped vegetables.
