Bulgur & Butter Bean Salad
The pleasantly sweet-and-sour pomegranate molasses in the tangy vinaigrette here is made by reducing pomegranate juice into a syrup. Look for it at well-stocked grocery stores and Middle Eastern markets.

Ingredients

Directions

  • Bring water to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Stir in bulgur and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cover, reduce heat to maintain a simmer and cook until the liquid is absorbed, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and let cool for 5 minutes.
