Recette De Taboule Sucre Sale Recipe Substitutions and Variations

• If you dont have fine bulgur wheat, you could try using couscous or quinoa – they work pretty similar and give a cool twist to the dish.
• Instead of plain water, a light vegetable broth can be used to boost the flavor even more.
• If you are low on extra virgin olive oil, you might substitute with avocado oil or walnut oil which imparts a unique taste.
• For the raisins, dried cranberries or chopped dates can be a fun alternative if you’re looking for a different type of sweetness.

Pro Tips

1. Try soaking the bulgur in the water with the sugar and salt for a full 30 minutes. This makes sure its super soft and mixes much better with all the other stuff. If it ends up too wet, don’t worry, just drain a bit before adding lemon juice and olive oil.

2. When you’re chopping that red onion, tomatoes, cucumber and bell pepper, try to cut em into roughly the same size pieces. It helps the flavors mix better so every bite has a bit of every taste.

3. Mix in the raisins and chopped apricots gently. They add this cool sweet kick that really contrasts with the lemon and olive oil. Just be careful not to over stir, or else your veggies might get mushy.

4. After combining everything, let the salad chill for at least 10 minutes. This not only helps all the flavors meld together, but gives you a chance to taste it and add a bit more salt if needed. Enjoy making it and feel free to adjust any ingredients to suit your own taste!
