Handmade Pearl Couscous from Agrozimi

Size

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 award-winning Greek pasta by hand with the finest durum wheat semolina and fresh spring water from their village of Arávissos, with slow, natural drying. By using freshly pasteurized eggs and milk instead of powdered, they ensure higher quality and a richer flavor. Importantly, there are no preservatives, additives, artificial flavors nor colorants.


HOW TO USE IT

This versatile pasta is delicious hot or cold, in soups, salads or even plain as a side dish. Just add a couple of tablespoons of cooked couscous to turn any salad or vegetable dish into a filling meal. Check out our blog for couscous recipes and especially our couscous "risotto". You can also find an authentic Greek recipe on the inside of the label. While there is a suggested cooking time on the pack, try it for yourself and cook to taste, especially if you like your pasta “al dente”.
