If you already love couscous, you will appreciate Israeli Toasted Couscous. Toasted Israeli Couscous is cooked like pasta and has a nutty and slightly chewy texture, similar to barley, when cooked. It is traditionally served as a substitute for rice and is delicious prepared like a Greek salad with fresh vegetables. Toasted Israeli Couscous is superb when combined with cooked asparagus or mushrooms, dried fruit and toasted nuts, or in a pilaf-style side dish to serve with lamb, chicken or grilled salmon.
