How To Cook Couscous

[@hyliann_princ3ss690]

I love when you teach me how to cook things I’ve never cooked before. You make it look so easy every time!

[@Thestayathomechef]

You are welcome (: Thank you for watching my videos

[@donnamcmanus7360]

Love couscous-quick cooking & easy to adapt to whatever you're serving. I make one with lemon juice/zest, bits of sundried tomato, capers, s&p & oregano. Another I use minced up dried apricots or mango, a pinch of red pepper flakes, onion & garlic powder s&p.

[@Thestayathomechef]

Oooh those do sound good (:

[@nishasolanki7662]

Best video on couscous! Thank you!

[@mikerodent3164]

This is how YT cookery lessons should be done. With, um, a practical, printable recipe. You've no idea how rare it is to see that. But how many people want to squint at a tablet or phone when cooking?

[@chrisharrison5126]

I've never cooked couscous. Always looking for something new to try.

[@Thestayathomechef]

Give it a try and let us know how it was (:

[@songsfromthelord888]

Thank you for teaching us how to cook couscous! I have an African friend who I want to make it for. 🙂 Remember that God loves you and wants you to love ❤️ Him and His ways too 🙂 Your video is very appreciated! Thanks again!

[@Anyonesguess421]

Bravo! I've never been big on rice. I'm trying to eat healthier. My friend suggested couscous as an alternative. I've never had it before, so I was skeptical. I tried the first recipe & it came out great! I made a list of all the spices you gave for the other recipes for my next shopping trip. I can't wait to try them. Thank you for explaining the cooking process and recipes clearly & simply. You made it so easy that even a kitchen train wreck like me could ace it! 😊

[@Thestayathomechef]

You are most welcome! Couscous is something we make in our family all the time. My tween often makes it for lunch on the weekends.

[@diapason5650]

Hi ! that' great to share these recipes. Couscous is originaly a berber or amazigh meal.they are native people in north africa. i'm one of them. as i always remembered, my mom make it with steam. the same way you would cook vegetables with steam. i do so my self now. its an other way to do it. one important thing to khow is that couscous and olive oil go always togather... you can eat couscous with a variety of things : vegetables, lentils, plain yoghourt, beans, ... enjoy...

[@sunshinebakery_melinda]

Yummy! I must try these!! Thanks for sharing.

[@igorjuricek5683]

Pouring water into hot oil is always fun!

[@glendaharding4884]

[@2whitie]

I have always wanted to try it, but I've always chickened out. I'm ready to try it now, plus you've given me great flavor combos to choose from. You are the best!

[@mariafaria2256]

Thank you! Somebody gave me couscous to try. And this came very informative. ❤❤❤

[@mslatif3378]

Wonderful tutorial, really made my life easier as I really needed to learn how to make cous cous .

[@tonibryant6893]

Thanks so much for this recipe

[@hannahsingleton7247]

I like adding vegetables to couscous with hot sauce and chicken broth 😋 couscous is yummy

[@Katharzna]

Will it go well with tuna and butter and cheese?

[@happybackchiropractic]

Hey Rachel… great to see you 😁

[@carlamullenberg1029]

I was so glad to see this video, I have just discovered Cous Cous and have not been confident in cooking it. I like to meal prep every Sunday for the coming week. If I make in on Sunday how long should it last in the fridge?

[@Thestayathomechef]

They will keep for up to 3 days.

[@southernaccentfoods]

Your videos are always fantastic! Your recipes are easy and concise, and your production quality and lighting are AMAZING!

[@Thestayathomechef]

Thank you so much!

[@chenchang5883]

I like coucous!

[@itumelengsephiri999]

Hey if I make for 6 people how many cups for couscous

[@mikewatson5281]

I’ve never had couscous but it looks dry , how does it taste

[@Thestayathomechef]

It’s a mild pasta flavor by itself with a texture that’s more like rice. In fact, people often confuse couscous as being a grain rather than a pasta made from flour.

[@HungryH1951]

I've watched a few other couscous cooking videos. This one is the best. I actually believe I can successfully cook couscous now. Thank you!

[@sharingchabadinspiration]

Thank you for specifically stating which countries they are actually from. People usually just say from the middle east or Mediterranean side. But its actually from Morocco (small grain) and Israel (pearl grain). Love your videos - keep it up!👍❤ btw your top/sweater is so pretty.

[@beverlyterry6072]

Is the couscous less fattening than regular rice

[@elenatunnicliff6782]

1 "tablespoon" of garlic. I smelled this part of the video. No judgment though, I always measure garlic with the heart. 💗

[@tenrc26]

The food’s so nice they named it twice. Ahh

[@aidash6111]

Couscous is North African cultural food and not Israeli. It dates back to hundreds of years ago. Incredible how it want to uproot everything even food and culture

[@chefjack33]

love how you say, coos coos ahahahaha

[@sharonlalli1414]

Looks good. Can the recipes be cut in half? That is an awful lot for one person.

[@Thestayathomechef]

Yup! My recipes are always published for average families which is the industry standard, but I also have a scaling feature built into my website to make recipes smaller or larger.

[@mamadelmundo6342]

Si vous voulez découvrir le mythe de la création du couscous, rdv sur la vidéo suivante : @

[@davidpena876]

Your teaspoons must be larger than mine as it appears that the amount you add looks like more than a teaspoon.

[@kcpdx]

That’s so much Garlic!!!!

[@margaritabetancourt1167]

👍👍👍👍

[@MariaWolff-p5x]

😊

[@truckerman9836]

Never heard of it.

[@countycalling]

Why does every single fool get on here like they know everything? I mean if they can cook and know so much why are they even here? You rock and know you are correct. Karen’s on every channel

[@noticing33]

Gayraeli kookoo

[@amaama604]

Couscous is not moroccon. Couscous is from maghreb north africa. Algeria tunisia and morocco cook couscous. Not the same way but it is not called couscous moroccon. I can explain to you if you want

[@Thestayathomechef]

I’m sure you realize that Maghrib included what is now known as the country of Morocco in addition to modern day Algeria, Tunisia, and Libya.

[@baidaan1894]

@@Thestayathomechef Ama is clearly from Maghreb. So she knows exactly what she says and she is right. Morocco is one country in Maghreb, so maghrebian things can’t be called Moroccan things.

[@Thestayathomechef]

Moroccan couscous is how every single package of couscous is labeled in English speaking countries. The only exception is Pearl couscous which may be labeled as Israeli couscous or Pearl couscous. My audience is 99% from English speaking countries so I choose to use the appropriate terminology for my audience. Those who choose to find offense in it will find offense no matter what I call it. Including all of the anti-Semitic comments I’m getting from citizens of the Maghrib region. Be careful how you represent your region.

[@countycalling]

Why the hell are you so damn rude? You should completely ignorant, start your own channel if you think you can cook if not sit in the back of the class and STFU

[@timajgaf2925]

No such thing As Israeli couscous. It's Palestinian. Israel just stole their culture along with their land

[@Thestayathomechef]

It’s labeled that at the grocery store. It isn’t a political statement.

[@countycalling]

That is 100% a lie. Palestine didn’t even exist when Israel became a country. Take you BS ELSEWHERE

[@SulaimaValo]

Correct and we call it Maftoul or Marma'on, not israeli couscous.

[@mlrable]

Never ever trust a person that uses garlic powder. Would any great chef use that, no. A cheap act depriving ud of the subtle flavor of garlic

[@Yanzdorloph]

Pearl couscous got nothing to do with Israel, why do westerners call it isreli couscous ? it existed for at least 800years before there was anything called israel. they make berkoukech with it in Morocco and i guess other north african nations too. but why, O why is it called israeli couscous in the west ?

[@Thestayathomechef]

Because that specific type of couscous originated from Israel in the 1950s. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli_couscous

[@Yanzdorloph]

that's just pure nonesense, it's a traditional thing from North africa dating back to centuries ago, there are descriptions of it up to the 11th century, how can it be a creation of the 1950s ? es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkoukes@@Thestayathomechef

[@Thestayathomechef]

You could always try reading the information I linked to.

[@mgnwill]

​@Jandroids She never said couscous originated from Israel: she's saying this particular type of food known as Israeli couscous was cultivated there. Naming helps to distinguish different types and strains of things and has nothing to do with denying the provinance of the original item. When my friends and I swap couscous recipes, we always stipulate whether the recipe uses Israeli or Moroccan couscous because, as they're different, the preparation is quite different.

[@Yanzdorloph]

@@mgnwill what I'm saying, is the type of couscous you call israeli couscous got nothing to do with israel, it's just berkoukech and has been made in north africa for centuries if not more. it's like if tomorow you wake up take basmati rice and call it Israeli rice

[@ahmedyasin3194]

Isreali couscous is crazy😂😂 it’s called mfataal and it’s Palestinian… and cheese this woman is a danger to society

[@Thestayathomechef]

Maftoul is made from bulgar and wheat. Pearl couscous is made from semolina and durum.
