ISRAELI COUSCOUS SALAD

While the couscous is still warm, add it to the bowl and toss to coat. Place in the refrigerator for 5-10 minutes to allow the couscous to cool.

MEDITERRANEAN COUSCOUS SALAD WITH FETA AND MINT
I created this Mediterranean salad to pair with a white-blend wine from South Africa. The saltiness of the feta and the freshness of the mint and vegetables made a perfect accompaniment to the citrus and herb notes of the wine. I cut up and dressed the vegetables the night before and then the morning that I was serving the salad, I cooked up the couscous following the directions on the package then tossed it with the vegetables and feta.

EGGPLANT, POMEGRANATE, FETA AND MINT ISRAELI COUSCOUS
This tasty side dish is full of fresh Middle Eastern flavours. Israeli couscous (also known as pearl couscous or Ptitim) is a larger version of regular couscous made from wheat that has a lovely bite to it. I love using it in salads that are a little chunky like this one.
