>What are some tasty things to do with it?
It's good with all sorts of stews, as if it was rice but tastier. There are good salad recipes with it in (and a ton of herbs like mint and dill, plus olives and other ingredients I forget right now).

I usually make it as a side when I smoke/grill meat or something like that. I make the couscous with chicken stock instead of water, then add chopped tomatoes and green onions, and feta cheese (I refrigerate it before serving). Easy and delicious on warm days.

>>15094876
Yeah, I used to mix couscous with frozen steamed veggies for a quick meal in college. Good stuff.

It's gross rice is the only grain that tastes good without any added ingredients

>>15094876
It's great for backpacking since it is so easy to make and you can add stuff to it for flavor

Hell yeah I love the emperor's new groove

There's no way that flimsy shell would be durable enough for me.

I like couscous. truely underappreciated pasta variant. You can even make sweet desserts with it. Cook in milk or water, grate an apple into it, cinnamon, optional nuts and dried fruit, top with honey. You're not aiming for a porridge consistency, it should still have a couscous texture, just sweet instead of savory.
If you got leftover couscous from the day before that was just cooked in salt water, not broth, you can just mix it with a bit of milk, honey, and cinnamon for a quick and ez breakfast. Apple, pear, pomegranate raisins, dates, nuts, even a dollop of yoghurt can all be added too.

>>15095713
how are these cakes made? so far I've only used couscous like you would use a grain like rice or oats.

It’s okay, rice is better though.

>>15094876
It's OK. Many proper boomers think it's a health food and reject it on that basis, which is good for a laugh.

>>15094876
I’m not the one eating it, do you like it?

>>15094876
I've only ever had it during canoe trips in the boundary waters but it was good

>>15094876
Of course, the food so nice they named it twice.

Meh I remember getting it as a side to bull testicles when I was young and finding it very bland
