What is Bulgur with pickled cabbage?
Bulgur with pickled cabbage is a Turkish home-style dish made by cooking bulgur with cabbage pickles. The cabbage brings a tangy, savoury note, while its saltiness and sharpness depend on the pickle and how much brine is used.
The bulgur turns tender and fluffy, with pieces of cabbage adding a little bite. In Turkey, it can be served warm for lunch or dinner, either on its own or alongside other home-cooked dishes. Bulgur makes it a filling, fibre-rich choice with carbohydrates at its centre. For a milder, less salty result, drain or rinse the cabbage and add the brine sparingly; fresh herbs make a simple accompaniment.
