You aren't going to get anywhere without knowing the Hebrew word
(and what it means).

There is a Jewish cooking group, I think, they might know.

"Pulse" in English means a legume, which in Daniel's time and
place would presumably be ful medames (broad beans, field beans).
But the translators might have been guessing as much as I am.
