- Soak the bulgur in warm water for about 20-30 minutes or until it is tender. Drain any excess water before using it in the salad.
- Finely chop the parsley and mint to ensure they are well-distributed throughout the salad, enhancing the overall flavor.
- For best results, use fresh and ripe tomatoes and cucumbers to add a juicy and crisp texture to your tabbouleh.
- Adjust the lemon juice and olive oil according to your taste preferences, and feel free to add more if you like a tangier or richer dressing.
- Let the tabbouleh sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together and makes the salad even more delicious.
