Couscous, an integral part of Middle Eastern and North African cuisines, has been a staple food for close to a thousand years. It’s almost always made with durum wheat semolina, and generally quite tiny in size – each piece measuring a mere couple of millimeters. Israeli Couscous is a larger, pearl-like iteration of couscous, similar in size, shape, and make-up to the moghrabieh found in places like Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon. Trader Joe’s Pearled Couscous, made for us in the U.S., is our take on this classic. Larger than traditional couscous but smaller than its closest pasta relative, Pearled Couscous is round and cooks up in minutes to a wonderfully chewy consistency. Serve it as a side dish, as a bed for grilled chicken or fish, or with feta cheese and toasted nuts.
