Couscous is produced from durum wheat. This hard wheat is milled to remove the bran and germ. The remaining endosperm, known as semolina, is crushed and then processed with water and flour before being sieved to form couscous. Couscous has a light natural wheat flavour and a golden colour. Quick and easy to prepare, organic couscous is a versatile addition to the pantry.

Add roasted vegetables; mushrooms and tempeh; or diced grilled chicken.

Couscous can also be rehydrated with cold water by soaking for 35-40 minutes.
