Directions
Seafood Tabbouli, Adapted from Jane Brody’s Good Seafood Book She notes that you can substitute heated Spicy Hot V8 juice or commercial Bloody Mary mix for the boiling water mentioned in Step 1 (I haven’t tried this); if you do this, omit the Tabasco sauce and anchovy paste If desired, serve with wedges of whole wheat pita I must admit that I’ve mixed the seafood into the tabbouli before chilling and thought it worked fine I can attest that the leftovers keep at least a couple days in the fridge, though some liquid collects that needs to be drained off Cooking (passive) time includes chilling as well as cooking Eight servings as an hors d’oeuvre or 4 servings as a light meal UPDATE: I agree with the first reviewer Juenessa that this is a bit bland, so now add 1 Tbsp of my Recipe #99882 If you don’t want to go to the bother of putting that together, you could try another seasoning that goes well with seafood, such as Old Bay Also, you should of course also add salt if you prefer your meals saltier (I follow a rather low-salt diet and have become accustomed to its absence ), We have recently discovered bulgur wheat and really enjoy the taste, so when I saw this recipe~I thought it would be something we would really like I added some kosher salt to the recipe, because I thought it would need some additional seasoning I let the bulgur mixture and dressing marinate for about 2 hours, then before eating tossed the seafood into the bulgur mixture I took a taste and thought it was kind of bland So, I added an additional 1/8 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice and another 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of hot pepper sauce I liked it, but didn’t love it My husband didn’t really care for it I’m sure this is a matter of individual tastes and someone else will try it and love it It was very fresh and made a lovely presentation
