Melissa Couscous (Κουσκουσέ)
Melissa Couscous, or “Kouskousé” in Greek, is a beloved Greek staple made from 100% durum wheat semolina. This small, round pasta grain is a traditional ingredient in many Greek and Mediterranean dishes, known for its light, fluffy texture and versatility in both savory and sweet recipes.
Perfect as a side dish, in soups, or as a base for salads, Melissa Couscous absorbs flavors beautifully while maintaining its shape and bite. It’s commonly used in Greek comfort dishes such as “kouskousé me ladi kai tyri” (couscous with olive oil and cheese) or as a quick alternative to rice or orzo.
Produced in Greece by Melissa, a trusted name in pasta since 1947, this couscous brings wholesome simplicity and Mediterranean authenticity to your kitchen. Easy to prepare, nutritious, and satisfying, Melissa Couscous is an essential pantry item for anyone who loves Greek home cooking.
