Agrozimi Handmade Pearl Couscous With Squid Ink

Agrozimi

$12.00

INCLUDES FREE SHIPPING

  • Pearl couscous (sometimes called Israeli couscous) came to Greece from the Eastern Mediterranean. Women would patiently roll out the little balls of pasta to then prepare a filling meal. Agrozimi has kept this tradition, continuing to make the pasta by hand with the finest durum wheat semolina and fresh spring water from their village of Arávissos, with slow, natural drying. By adding a touch of pasteurized squid ink, Agrozimi has created a subtly-flavored and distinctively-colored accompaniment to your favorite seafood dishes and a striking base for pasta salads. As an added plus, the 500gr. package is larger than typical pasta packages, weighing in at 17.6oz. or 1.1lbs. Importantly, there are no preservatives, additives, artificial flavors nor colorants.

    We just love these delightfully delicious black beads. You can find an authentic Greek recipe on the inside of the label or simply use this pasta to jazz up any plain fish dinner. Our favorite, though, is to mix a few quick-cooking beads with strained Greek yogurt for a black-and-white delight…the perfect light, yet filling, meal! (Keep in mind that since this is an all-natural product with no artificial dyes, some fading may occur during cooking.)
