Couscous FAQ
Are couscous gluten free?
No, couscous is not gluten-free. While couscous looks similar to rice, couscous is made from semolina, which is a type of wheat. Wheat contains gluten, so it’s not suitable for people with celiac disease or gluten intolerance. If you are looking for a gluten-free grain, you may want to consider quinoa, sorghum, riced cauliflower, or rice.
