RiceSelect Original Pearl Couscous, also known as Israeli Couscous, is named for its unique shape. Pearl Couscous is formed into small spheres and then toasted in an open-flame oven. This toasting process allows it to absorb liquid without falling apart and distinguishes it from regular couscous and other pasta. This makes for a quick, versatile side dish that can be used as a non-traditional ingredient in classic recipes. This very versatile product, made from the highest-quality wheat, is easy to prepare; simply add to boiling water and cook for about 10 minutes. Once it's ready, add sauce as you would any pasta, use for salads or as a delicious bed for grilled or roasted fish, meat or chicken. For your convenience, the RiceSelect Original Pearl Couscous comes in a 24.5-ounce container. From our seed to your plate, RiseSelect's dedication to quality can be not only be seen, but can truly be tasted.
