Everyone seems to have an opinion on what makes a good tabouli.

I’m no exception, and I prefer my tabouli heavy on the parsley to bulgur ratio, and zippy with lemon juice. I also like the flavor of Italian parsley (as opposed to curly) and make that parsley chopped extra, extra fine, if you please. After that, recipe additions are fair game. Since we’re in corn and tomato season, you can bet they found there way into this salad.

I used Hodgson Mill Bulgur Wheat as I love the texture and earthy flavor. However, I found I needed to up the amount of boiling water used to soak the wheat by one-half.
