Question 1

The instructions on the bag say to microwave for 2 minutes after boiling water soak for 3 minutes. how to do this if no microwave, please?

Accepted Answer

Place pot with a cover on a hot plate or electric burner.  Take of the cover, pour into pot 1 1/4 cups water or broth.  Add a little salt if you are not using broth. Add a little butter or olive oil. Turn on heat.  Bring water or broth to a boil and gently stir in 1 cup of couscous. Cover the pot. Turn off burner and remove pot from the burner.  Allow to sit for 5 - 7 minutes. Take cover off pot. Couscous will have a dry, congealed, lumpy texture.  Fluff up with a fork, getting rid of all the lumps.  You can also try this with a rice cooker.

Question 2

What are the health benefits?

Accepted Answer

Hi :-)  So, I had really high hopes for this couscous, but sadly, when it arrived it was broken open and smelled rancid!!  I didn't take notice to health benefits from this particular brand, but you can always google health benefits of couscous.  I am so sorry I couldn't answer your question.  Stay safe and well :-)

Question 3

Do you know that all couscous can be steamed for hours to fluffy perfection or mixed with hot water to make 5 minute mush?

Accepted Answer

You can do the hot water but it’s much much better steamed like the North Africans do. Love the Dari!!! Beautiful grain
