This looks amazing! I love pearl couscous. Just to remind everyone that you need to cook the pearl couscous on a stove but when you are making regular couscous you only need to add the same amount of boiling water as couscous in a bowl or dish and wait for it to absorb. No cooking needed!
How much water does pearl couscous need?
Thank you! I am new to cooking couscous but I have loved it when I have had it at restaurants for years.
Just made this the last 2 days me and the family absolutely loveeee this recipe!!!! The dressing is everything!! My husband is obsessed!
Omy this is sooooo good. The more plant base i go the better i feel. I get so excited that its hard to not make to many dishes at once. Pray my kitchen restoration gets done this year. I so want to live a better life.
🎉
This will be a big hit for my summer family gathering. Thanks for posting the recipe video.
Tried this for dinner tonight and it was absolutely delicious. This is light, fresh and full of flavor. Perfect dinner for a (very warm) Summer evening with plenty of leftovers as well. I plan on adding this to my regular rotation.
I am so glad!
This looks good and delicious! I will definitely try making this.
Looks yummy. Can't wait to try it.
Sunday lunch and dinner. Making dressing in small lidded jar makes it easier to shake and emulsify.
Thanks you very much! Look delicious!!

I found your channel because I'm cooking pearl couscous for the first time, and when I heard that you grew up in Port Said I got all emotional because my amazing dad grew up there (very long ago, and also he died decades ago), and I wish I could sit with you and ask you all about that city! Anyway, thanks for this great recipe !
Aw, that is so sweet. It was a wonderful place to grow up❤️ I am so sorry you lost your dad!
@@TheMediterraneanDish Ah, thank you so much ! xxx It's so nice to be in touch with a Port Said person, even if you were there a while back. (I've been looking at more of your videos and they're fantastic) Hugs to you and your family xxx

I actually bought a huge container of pearl couscous by accident. I thought I was grabbing the finer couscous. Thank you for showing me how to toast it and use it. I don't like to waste. I'll be trying soon!
I am so glad! Enjoy!

Thank you. Suzy would you mind sharing a link to that lovely electric kettle in this video?
Looking for this.
I made this today delicious. Thank you for the recipe
This looks amazing. I would love to make this, but it looks like a lot. I would love to know how much couscous and other ingredients to use, especially with the salad dressing.
Hmmm ready to eat ❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍
Look amazing can't i get the recipe? Thank you sharing
I went in the link for the list of ingredients and nothing came up only a blog of how amazing it is
This is the pearl couscous salad recipe. Enjoy.
This truly looks flavorful. I’m making this this summer! Anyone know if it’s “better the next day”?
Also how long does it stay good in the fridge for?
The flavors will deepen overnight; just be sure to give the salad a quick toss to refresh before serving. It will stay good in the fridge for 3-4 days 😊
@@TheMediterraneanDish thank you 💖💖💖💖
Wowww DELICIOUS 😋😋😋😋🥗👌👌🙏🙏🙏🙏
How many cups of water ?
When I cooked pearl couscous as per instructions it was sticky even after draining and rinsing. How can I make it non sticky?
I really like your recipe, I made it a few times already, it is delicious:) I think the music in your video is not necessary. Just your voice and instruction would do:) Thank you!
I thought couscous was tiny pasta that looks like tiny beads... But your couscous looks like something else entirely... What is it? Or how does one find it? This salad looks amazing, and my husband and I would love to try it, but with your couscous. Fantastic video!
Hi Claudia! You're right! This type of couscous is indeed larger than the typical couscous. It is also known as Israeli couscous or maftoul. We now carry pearl couscous at our online shop: shop.themediterraneandish.com/product/pearl-couscous/
@@TheMediterraneanDish But it's still a pasta? The Israeli couscous? Because in your video it looks like seeds... My husband and I going to go off wheat for a while to see if we are allergic to it. Thank you so much!
Yes pearl couscous is like tiny pasta beads. Regular couscous is smaller than pearl couscous, which is what you might be referring to. You can learn more about pearl couscous by clicking the link to the recipe in the video description. I go into a little more detail about the couscous.
It's called pearl cous cous :) I've never had it but I'm trying to change my diet up (was on keto for a year and I'm just so sick of eating fats, it makes me feel sick at this point) so I will be trying soon. I've made a Mediterranean cous cous for over a decade but I'm interested in trying the pearl cous cous!
Israeli couscous is like tiny pasta beads. Delicious and versatile. I often sauté it with vegetables; this used to be the only way to get my kids to eat their veggies.
What is the ratio of couscous to water to cook perfect couscous?
Actually you don't need to cook cous cous. The normal way to make it is covering the ration of cous cous with hot water. The water always has to be one centimeter above the cous cous. Be careful with the ration, because like the rice it will grow. After you cover with the hot water, just cover it with a plate or a plastic and wait until the cous cous get dry (5 to 10 minutes), it basically just absorbe the water. Then take the cous cous and mix it with olive oil for some hydration otherwise it will be too dry. If you want some spices flavor add them to the cous cous before putting the water on it and the same procedure cover with a plate or a plastic and wait 5 to 10 minutes. After the cous cous is ready you can play with vegetables and other flavors. The cous cous is an easy dish that you can combine with a lot of things. If you don't want to add spices you can flavor it with herbs like Parsley, Mint or Coriander and use a fresh dressing like yogurt.
Actually this recipe uses pearl couscous which requires more time to cook. What you’re describing is the way to cook the finer couscous
If it was pearl then that is Bulgur. They both looks similar but the flavor and texture are different.
Please lower the music while talking hunny.. I want to hear your delishious recipe.. and thanks for sharing it...
💝✌😋👌
You did not say how much water and how much couscous
I would have had added chicken soup to the water
Israeli couscous: yummy and so versatile!
Nice recipe but the background music is very annoying which makes it hard to listen to the instructions.
wow you are stunningly beautiful.... where are you from in the Mediterranean
Lol... Typical Jack ey
@@f44had lol i was jw FHD fucking hard dick
OMG the music is super distracting
This is Berkoukes and it is from Algeria, couscous looks nothing like that, oh and the couscous is also from Algeria.
In English it's called "pearl couscous" but it is mainly a machine-shaped toasted pasta.
Couscous is not Mediterranean is only Moroccan 🇲🇦 not French, not Algerian, not Tunisian and not Israelis .
It’s Moroccan berber.
Its not couscous
Recipe is ok unfortunately the woman is annoying and feels the need to shout.
Instructions unclear.. couldnt find the lemon jews in store.... nice video tho
