"Couscous... what is that?" That is normally the reaction I get from most people when I mention it. To help you out, here is a description of couscous:
Couscous is the husked and crushed, but unground, semolina of hard wheat. Semolina is the hard part of the grain of hard-wheat, which resists the grinding of the millstone.
Couscous can be served hot or cold. I prefer it as a hot dish. Here is a recipe I like to use for making it. It is only one of MANY ways to prepare couscous.
Use organic foods as much as possible!!!
