https://oevenezolano.org/2024/08/68ooq5ll3t I only started eating couscous a few years ago – I expect that’s the same for a lot of people.  It was only after I’d had it a few times that I started wondering exactly what it was.  Obviously it’s some kind of starchy carbohydrate, but it didn’t quite seem like anything else I’d had – rice or pasta say.

However a little bit of research tells me that couscous is made from semolina and durum wheat flour.  Semolina is the hard part of the durum wheat kernel. The semolina grains are combined with water, and then rolled in the flour to keep them separate.

I’d like to have a go at making big couscous for myself – hopefully its as easy to cook as the small kind, but I haven’t yet seen it on the supermarket shelves so that’s something to look out for.
