An Ode to Couscous

  • Couscous: I love you
    And people in Morocco love you too
    I never used to understand, you, couscous
    So crumbly
    But I've grown to love you
    In that slimline box
    Easy to stack
    Easy to find in the pantry
    Not like those messy rice bags or Lipton's Sides
    Ugh. Hate those

    Couscous: I love you
    You're affordable
    Well, sort of.
    I mean, $2 + per box isn't exactly cheap
    Not as cheap as rice or pasta, for instance
    But, still.
    It's a convenience thing

    Couscous: here's what I love most about you
    You don't need cooking
    Just tip you into boiling water
    That's it
    No, really. That's it.
    Let stand for five minutes
    Serve
    Poetic in its simplicity
    You're the perfect side dish

  • Kate - Couscous is easy to make, as Diane's "ode" - which is awesome, by the way - mentions, versatile and hard to screw up. Don't be scared! :)
