Adapted from Epicurean Couscous or kuskus is a pasta from the Maghreb of Berber origin It consists of spherical granules made by rolling and shaping moistened semolina wheat and then coating them with finely ground wheat flour The finished grains are about 1 mm in diameter before cooking The Israeli variant is about twice the diameter and made of hard wheat instead of semolina The dish is a primary staple throughout much of Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, and Libya It is also popular in the West African Sahel, in France, Madeira island, in western Sicily’s Trapani province, and parts of the Middle East It is particularly popular among Jews of North African descent, such as the Berber Jews, and is eaten in many other parts of the world as well , Very good I omitted the onions and added kalamata olives, tomato, and cucumber used black beans Served room temperature Thanks!, This was wonderful!!!
