What it is
BIA couscous is a durum wheat couscous supplied in a 500 g pack and a documented format of three packs. It gives professional kitchens a quick, versatile cereal base for hot dishes, salads and catering preparation.
Product and format
The product designation is BIA Couscous 500 g and the supplier information includes ALIGRO Demaurex and Cie SA. The working format is three 500 g packs, corresponding to the current 3PZ unit.
Organoleptic profile
The couscous has a mild wheat aroma and a light grain texture after hydration. Its neutral profile takes on herbs, vegetables, dressings, sauces and other seasonings without competing with the main ingredients.
Professional uses and quantities
Use the 500 g packs for salads, side dishes, vegetable fillings, bowls and buffet service. Plan the number of packs from the menu and guest count, then hydrate or cook the required amount according to the package instructions.
Errors to avoid
Do not add water or seasoning by eye when the recipe requires a defined method, and do not prepare more couscous than the service needs. Avoid leaving the cooked product exposed or mixing it with wet ingredients too early.
Storage and handling
Store the unopened packs dry and protected from humidity according to the product label. After preparation, use clean utensils, protect the couscous from contamination and handle leftovers according to the kitchen food-safety procedure.
