Got this bulk container of pearl couscous and the directions are insanely bad. There’s no way this would cook this way!
If you’ve never had Israeli couscous, it’s basically a different shape of pasta. You boil it in lots of water and drain it. 1/4 cup water with 1 cup couscous would leave you with a crunchy mess.

I dunno – that looks close to every couscous recipe I’ve ever prepared. If you add too much water you’re going to end up with porridge. Unlike Italian pastas where you drain the water, the water stays in the prepared couscous recipe.
This is hilarious and I love that you’re getting angry responses ??? I’m guessing they meant 1 1/4 cup water, which is closer to recipes I’ve seen.
Wdym it’s the perfect amount of water so it’d remain crunchy on the inside, how else would you lose teeth chewing through it?
