INSTRUCTIONS
Put bulghur in a heatproof bowl. Bring water to a boil and pour over
bulghur. Let bulghur stand 1 hour.
While bulghur is soaking, in a large bowl stir together onion, salt,
allspice, and dried mint, if using (do not add fresh mint now), and let
stand 30 minutes. Drain bulghur in a sieve, pressing hard to extract as
much water as possible, and add to onion mixture with remaining
ingredients, including fresh mint, if using.
Toss salad well and season with salt and pepper.
Yield: 4 to 6 servings
