Note

 Prepare Your Own Bulgur 

If you soak 2 cups of wheat berries in 4 cups of water overnight, you can make your own bulgur the next day. Drain the wheat berries, simmer them in 4 cups of water for 60 minutes, and drain. Dry the wheat berries on a baking sheet pan in a 250°F oven for 45 minutes or until dry. Chop up the dried, cooked wheat berries in a food processor and store in a large jar.
