    👍 Thank you! So many videos don't tell you how to actually cook the couscous .. turns out pretty much like pasta, not regular couscous. Nice idea as a salad 👌

    I love couscous and made it myself for the first time today. It came out mushy, so I found myself here. This video has Alvin Zhou vibes and I'm loving it. Also, definitely making it this way next time. Much easier than what the box said.

    Couscous origin is from North Africa : it is the national emblematic dish of Algeria Morocco Tunisia Libya Mauritania .
    What you name pearl couscous is not a couscous . The originel name is berkoukes, also a specialty of North Africa .
    Couscous has been adopted in several other regions of the world like Europe mainly France due to colonial history (French colonization of North Africa )
    Italy around the 9th century after Arrival of soldiers from North African origin in the Muslim army
    Then couscous has been adopted much more later in Syria Palestine Israel
    During the 19th and 20 century due to arrival in these areas of populations from North African origin (civil population who felt French colonialism in 19th century and later Jewish population from North African origin at the creation of Israel or during Second World War ) who established in Middle East
    With time each country développés it’s own couscous
    However there are more than 50 type of couscous just in North Africa which is the area of origin ( vegetable couscous with or without sauce , lamb couscous with specific vegetables , chicken couscous , fish couscous , winter couscous summer couscous
    Sweet couscous salty couscous
    Wedding couscous …. Midnight couscous … breakfast couscous Etc )

      You are correct that "pear couscous" is not actually couscous (it's called "ptitim", or flakes, in Hebrew), but it's also different from Berkoukes. They look very similar and are both made from wheat but are made using different processes (ptitim are extruded and pre-toasted, which gives them a different flavor).

      Saute nahi karne wale ho toh skip kar sakte ho. Dressing me koi bhi oil use kar sakte ho - olive oil better rahega pr.

    Thank you for sharing your recipe.I think next time just have all the ingredients that goes in the salad together we don’t have to watch how you slice things 👍🇦🇺

      That's part of the appeal of the video though. It's relaxing :)

    Your slicing technique is painful to watch.
