Is it okay for my daughter to eat dry couscous?

Do you mean dry as it not cooked? Or just by itself?

Couscous is a grain and grains should be cooked before digestion. If it’s your first time dealing with it Put it in a bowl, pour salted boiling water over it, you can put some chopped fresh herbs, a bit of lemon and olive oil. Let it sit for 10-15. Mix it and give it to her like that. It’s so good 😮‍💨 pairs great with beef, chicken, goat and some fish.

I don't think it's good for digestion. It's like eating uncooked pasta or rice.

How old?

Cooked and dry yes, raw and dry no

I assume she means cooked guys 😂

@Grace good point 🤣🤣 "dry" as in uncooked? Or dry as in no flavour...just plan ? OP?

Need clarification on whether you mean plain or uncooked because uncooked grains are obviously absorbent and should be cooked before eating

I voted “no” but it’s because I thought you meant not cooked. It’s fine to eat if it’s been cooked.

I meant not cooked I think. Like I normally 'cook' it by pouring boiling water over it and letting it sit for 3 minutes, but she was insistent on just having it dry. She's totally fine, she didn't eat much and I mixed it with some seeds so it wasn't all couscous.

You must cook it next time
