Product Information
- WHAT IS PEARL COUSCOUS? - Pearl couscous looks like a grain, but it’s actually a type of pasta! It is made of tiny spheres of toasted semolina flour (which is made from durum wheat). It cooks fast and can be served plain, simply seasoned with kosher salt, or you can dress it up in a variety of ways, which makes it a convenient side dish when you’re in a bind. I like adding fresh flat-leaf parsley and lemon zest for some brightness, but you have loads of options when it comes to adding flavor!
- HOW TO COOK PEARL COUSCOUS - While you can definitely skip the toasting step, I highly recommend to take this extra step, especially if you’re planning to serve it as a side dish. Toasting adds beautiful golden color and enhances the nutty flavor! Pearl couscous is incredibly versatile and can be used in many different dishes.
- COUSCOUS WHOLE SPELT TOASTED PASTA - The versatile Israeli couscous, often known as pearl couscous, is produced from toasted semolina wheat. This grain is rounder and slightly larger than conventional couscous and is sometimes referred to as Jerusalem couscous or ptitim. When cooked, it has a great chewy texture that goes well with a variety of meals. For an Israeli couscous salad, combine it with fresh vegetables and feta cheese.
- TOASTED PEARL COUSCOUS BY NY SPICE SHOP - This small-grained couscous is the one most commonly sold in the U.S. Sprinkle it on salad greens like quinoa, mix with finely chopped veggies for a quick salad, or used like rice or pasta to soak up a saucy dish. Serve it hot or cold! NY SPICE SHOP couscous is a classic pearl Mediterranean Toasted Pasta that is easy and simple to make.
- TOASTED USA COUSCOUS WITH CORN AND HERBS - This fresh salad pairs juicy corn kernels with a showering of fresh herbs—basil, chives, and dill—plus some caramelized onions for good measure. The savory-sweet combo pairs well with grilled fish, rotisserie chicken, or a seared steak. The larger toasted balls of this couscous have a softer, chewier texture, and a slightly nutty taste. This couscous loves salads.
