  • If you don't have Dijon mustard, you can use another type of mustard, such as yellow mustard or brown mustard. However, Dijon mustard has a unique flavor that pairs well with the vegetables and couscous, so it is the best choice if you have it.
  • If you don't have vegetable broth, you can use chicken broth or water. However, vegetable broth will give the dish a more flavorful taste.
