Armenians use a lot of "bulgur" (cracked wheat) in their pilaf dishes. Bulgur is a kind of dried cracked wheat, served sometimes instead of rice. It is prepared with cracked wheat, also known as dalia. It is made from cracked wheat, Ethiopian oats, barley or a mixture of those. Armenians traditionally prefer cracked wheat (bulgur) to maize and rice. The Greek "trahanas" contains only cracked wheat or a "couscous"-like paste and fermented milk.
