Also known as: Khorasani Milk-Bulgur Eshkeneh
Milk-prepared cracked wheat simmered with onion, mint and walnuts, served over bread.
About Eshkeneh-ye Bulgur-e Shir
Fararu records this milk-bulgur eshkeneh as a local dish of South Khorasan. Its bulgur-e shir begins with partially cooked wheat, cracked and cooked in milk with turmeric before being dried.
Onion and dried mint are warmed in oil for the soup base. The milk-prepared grain joins them with water, salt and pepper, then chopped walnuts add richness as the mixture thickens.
The soup is ladled into bowls and bread is broken into it. Vegetables and additional onion are offered alongside, keeping the grain-and-dairy preparation at the centre of the meal.
