Israeli Couscous Reviews


Good one, worked fine for me.

This is a nice change from rice or potatoes. There are many ways to vary the cooking method. Water may replace the broth. Toasting the couscous prior to cooking it, adds to the flavor but is not a necessary step. I have added onion, garlic, preserved lemon or any flavor that will compliment the dish I'm serving with it. I always make this with the Moroccan Lemon Chicken.

This couscous is pearl sized and does not stick together like the smaller couscous. [I posted this recipe.]
