Couscous (25 x 1kg)

Wholesale couscous is a dried durum wheat grain supplied in a bulk box for restaurants, cafes, caterers, takeaways and food manufacturers across the UK. Also sold as cous cous, it hydrates in minutes with hot water or stock, so chefs can prepare large batches in a commercial kitchen without boiling or draining. Its mild flavour and fine, fluffy texture suit hot dishes and cold salads alike.

Key Features of Wholesale Couscous

• Bulk & Wholesale Supply: A bulk pack suits UK kitchens that serve couscous every day, from busy takeaways to hotel and event caterers, and means fewer reorders.
• Trade Pricing: The grains swell as they absorb liquid, so a little dry couscous makes many portions. Buying at trade price keeps the cost per plate low.
• Quick Hydration: Pour over hot stock or water, cover, rest, then fluff with a fork. No hob space is needed, which helps on a crowded line or at a buffet.
• Mild Flavour That Takes Seasoning: Couscous carries stock, saffron, harissa, ras el hanout, preserved lemon and fresh herbs without competing with them.
• Hot or Cold Service: The small grains stay separate when fluffed, which works for warm sides under saucy dishes and for chilled salads and lunch boxes.
• Storage & Handling for Bulk Packs: Keep in a cool, dry place in a sealed container, away from moisture and strong odours. Reseal the bulk box after each use.
