Osem Israeli Couscous is a wonderful, large grain couscous and makes a delicious accompaniment to any meal, as an alternative to pastas and potatoes; easy to make (8-10 min.) one box is suitable for 4 servings and buying online in bulk offers quite a savings for this (often) difficult to find grocery item (less than $2.00/box vs $2.39 at most stores)
a definite score via Amazon!

I only recently started making couscous when I discovered this Israeli type. I love this stuff, it looks quite similar to acini di pepe, but has a lovely bite and texture quite different from your regular small pasta.
However, it isn't terribly nutritious having no appreciable amounts of calcium or iron, it's basically just pure carbs. But it is a good base to build a dish on. I usually end up with celery, garlic, onion/shallot/leek, fresh parsley, broccoli/cauliflower, zucchini and chicken/pork. I've even used pak choi. Pretty much any fresh veg you add will pair up great. Funnily enough, I've never actually made it plain as a side dish.
I highly recommend trying it out if you're in a rut with your regular starchy side dishes.

If you have never tried Israeli Couscous, you're in for a treat. Not really couscous, but small grains of pasta, this has a great bite to it. Read more

Wheat Gluten
It's basically small, sticky balls of wheat gluten. Tasteless. There are much better couscous available.

The best couscous
Most couscous available in grocery stores is the small grain kind that is difficult to cook - tends to lump together. Read more

Love this stuff!!
I had Israeli Coucous for the first time at a restaurant and thought it was the bomb! It is not a grain, but a tiny pasta ball. It just slides in your mouth delightfully! Read more
