Recipe: Pearl Couscous Salad with Cherries & Arugula
I have a big crush on pearl couscous (also known as Israeli couscous). These big, pearly grains of pasta cook quickly, becoming chewy and tender, and they taste good at all temperatures — cold, lukewarm, hot. This makes them the perfect base for summer salads and quick dinner dishes. I’ve drenched pearl couscous in lemon and chili and piled shrimp on top, and I’ve tossed it with asparagus, almonds, and goat cheese.
