булгур

Definition from own experience or research:
Булгурът има широка употреба в българската национална кухня. Булгур е турска дума и означава олющено и натрошено на късчета жито. Много често се е използвал като заместител на ориза, но в съвременната българска кухня се предпочита заради хранителните му качества.
Example sentences:
Булгурът има високи хранителни стойности, използва се в супи, пилафи, като плънка също. Той е добър заместител на ориза или кускуса (Wikipedia)
