Place the bulgur in a fine mesh strainer, rinse under cold water and drain well. (There is no need to soak the bulgur in the water. It will soften as it soaks in the dressing). Transfer to a large bowl and toss with the mint, parsley, green onions, tomatoes, and cucumber. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pour the dressing over the bulgur and mix well. Let the salad sit for at least 15 minutes at room temperature for the flavors to marry before serving. COOK'S TIP: This salad can be prepared a day ahead of time. Simply layer the ingredients in a bowl in the following order: bulgur, parsley, mint, onions, tomatoes, and cucumber. Cover tightly and refrigerate. When ready to serve, toss the bulgur and vegetables with the dressing. Let sit for 15 minutes and its ready to serve. |
