Couscous is such a versatile ingredient and great rustled up as a quick side dish. The Umami Bomb gives the couscous in this recipe a real savory richness which would be delicious with chicken, fish or falafels. If you are going wheat or gluten free this Bomb is also wonderful for flavoring any whole grains or rice.
