Ceres Organics Wholemeal Couscous is a simple, traditional grain product made from certified organic durum wheat semolina. Light in texture with a gentle, nutty flavour, wholemeal couscous is valued for its versatility and ease of use in everyday cooking. It is a practical pantry staple that suits a wide range of savoury dishes, from salads and sides to slow-cooked vegetable and legume meals.
Produced using organically grown durum wheat, this couscous reflects a straightforward approach to food, focusing on minimal processing and quality raw ingredients. The wholemeal grain retains more of the natural character of the wheat, resulting in a slightly firmer texture and deeper flavour compared to refined alternatives. It is well suited to cooks who prefer classic ingredients that can be adapted to many cuisines and cooking styles.

Extended Information
Wholemeal couscous has long been used as a staple grain across North African and Mediterranean cooking, where it forms the foundation of many traditional meals. Its mild flavour allows it to absorb herbs, spices and dressings easily, making it a reliable option for both simple home cooking and more elaborate dishes. In everyday use, it pairs well with roasted vegetables, chickpeas, lentils, fresh herbs and olive oil, or can be served alongside slow-cooked stews and tagines.
Because couscous is made from durum wheat rather than being a whole grain in its intact form, the choice of wholemeal semolina adds depth and substance compared to refined versions. Many people appreciate it as a practical alternative to rice or pasta when variety is desired without complexity in preparation.
