  • 1 cup bulgur wheat
  • 2 pinches kosher salt, plus 1 teaspoon
  • 1 1/4 cups boiling water
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped flat-leaf parsley leaves
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh mint leaves
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh chives
  • 1 pint baby tomatoes, washed and quartered
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
