Put bulgur in a heatproof bowl. Bring water to a boil and pour over
bulgur. Let bulgur stand 1 hour.

While bulgur is soaking, in a large bowl, stir together onion, salt,
allspice, and dried mint, if using (do not add fresh mint now), and
let stand 30 minutes. Drain bulgur in a sieve, pressing hard to
extract as much water as possible, and add to onion mixture with
remaining ingredients, including fresh mint, if using.
