Couscous is a super-yummy food that, sadly, I rarely think about making. That might be because I’m never quite sure what to do with it, but as this roundup proves, there’s actually quite a lot you can do with tiny steamed balls of semolina. If you didn’t already know how awesome couscous is – or if you temporarily forgot, like me – prepare to discover a new favorite food.
Couscous is most commonly used in North Africa, which is where it originated, but as it’s gained popularity throughout the world, it’s been incorporated into a wide variety of cuisines. While it is often served as a savory dish, couscous can also be used to make sweet desserts.
