Couscous is rounded ground semolina, a type of wheat. This Israeli toasted pearl couscous is larger than traditional couscous. When cooked, it has a toasted, nutty taste and a soft, light texture.
Simply combine toasted pearl couscous with oregano, basil, or your own blend of herbs, seasonings, and vegetables.
Couscous gets much of its flavor by toasting it in oil or butter in a pan prior to cooking it water or broth.
Perfect as a side dish or an easy lunch all on its own, this is one couscous recipe you need to try straight away.
Vegetarian and vegan, pearl couscous also has a low glycemic index, making it a healthy and high-fiber food.
