RiceSelect Pearl Couscous With Turmeric, 21-Ounce Jar

I started using the regular pearl couscous and really enjoyed it. Most of my recipes requiring the use of couscous include the use of tumeric, so I tried this couscous and it gives an enhanced flavor which is very good. It’s hard to find in stores so happy to find it here.

I've seen "cous cous" on menus before but never ordered it. It looked boring or like a vegetable, perhaps. However, I was making a "we mail it, you cook it" type meal that came with a small portion of cous cous, and was pleasantly surprised by the result. I had added some chopped green onions, garlic and oil to cook it in, so not just plain cous cous, but it was like eating a (more) starchy version of those boba balls you can get with big straws and Thai Ice Tea or other drinks. These are very roughly the size of green peas, rather than the size of rice, as other cous cous varieties I've tried since have been. The bigger ones taste better to me, and are easy-peasy to make. Add about 50% more water than the amount of cous cous you want to make. Cook/stir for roughly 5 minutes, adding whatever seasoning you want (butter, oil, garlic, onions, cilantro, pepper, heck, all all of this stuff if you want), and there you go. I'd probably give it a 4.5 stars, since I try not to give perfect scores.

I like this Israeli couscous a lot.

excellent

Oh boy great popping corn kernels.
