How to make Double-Steamed Hand-Rolled Couscous from Scratch
Pour 3 tbps oil into a large bowl with 2 pounds of course semolina and 2 ½ tbps kosher salt
Mix the ingredients thoroughly
Add 2 cups of water, one at a time, by slowly pouring the water over the back of your hand, spreading your fingers as you mix the grains with your hand.
Transfer the semolina mixture to a sieve and sift it straight into the couscoussière. Put the couscoussière with the sifted couscous over a pot of simmering water, cover, and steam for 40 minutes. Transfer the steamed couscous back to the bowl.
Add one more cup of water, using the same method to mix the grains, and then rub the grains between your palms until you have even-sized fine crumbles. To finish, let the couscous sit for 10 minutes, then steam a second time for another 40 minutes.
