Cous Cous
Couscous - or kuskus as it is known in Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya and Egypt - is a Berber dish consisting of spherical granules made by rolling and shaping moistened semolina wheat and then coating them with finely ground wheat flour. The finished granules are about one millimetre in diameter before cooking. The Levantine variant, popular also in Israel, is about twice the diameter and made of hard wheat instead of semolina. Traditional couscous requires considerable preparation time and is usually steamed. In many places, a more processed, quick-cook couscous is available and is particularly valued for its short preparation time. The dish is a primary staple throughout the Maghreb; in much of Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and Libya it is also known as ta'aam, "food".
