- Use high-quality couscous. Look for couscous that is made from durum wheat and has a slightly nutty flavor.
- Toast the couscous before cooking it. This will help to bring out its flavor and give it a slightly crispy texture.
- Use a flavorful broth. Chicken broth, vegetable broth, or even water can be used to cook couscous, but using a flavorful broth will add more depth of flavor to the dish.
- Add garlic and hot sauce to taste. The amount of garlic and hot sauce you add will depend on your personal preferences. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
- Let the couscous rest before serving. This will allow the couscous to absorb all of the flavors of the broth and seasonings.
