Lebanese Couscous

Lebanese Couscous

EverydayDry

Lebanese couscous, also known as moghrabieh, is a large pearl-shaped pasta made from semolina wheat that's significantly bigger than traditional North African couscous. These chewy, pearl-sized balls are traditionally hand-rolled and sun-dried, creating a versatile ingredient that maintains its distinctive texture when cooked. When prepared, the couscous develops a tender exterior while remaining pleasantly firm in the center, making it ideal for hearty Mediterranean stews and grain-based salads.
