Cuzcuz is a traditional North African dish, primarily made from steamed semolina wheat granules, often served with a flavorful stew or sauce. Originating from the Berber culture, it’s a staple in countries like Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia. Cuzcuz is not only versatile, pairing well with vegetables, meats, and spices, but it’s also a good source of carbohydrates and can be rich in fiber when made with whole grain. While it's typically low in fat, be mindful of added sauces, which can increase calories. Enjoy this delicious dish, and savor its cultural heritage!
