In the microwave
Microwaving bulgur is the quickest method and doesn’t have any negative effects on the final product, though it may have a slightly different texture than bulgur cooked on the stovetop.
Combine (182 grams) of bulgur wheat with (475 mL) of water in a microwave.
Microwave the bulgur and liquid together for about 3 minutes.
Remove from the microwave and let sit for another 5 minutes.
Adjust the cooking time as needed. A coarse grain may need longer than a medium or fine grain.
