Couscous is a traditional North African dish that has transcended its borders to become a popular option in many cuisines around the world, including Spanish cuisine. Its origin dates back to the Berber tribes, who used this food made from wheat semolina as a versatile base to accompany various stews and vegetables. In Latin America, although it is not as common as other dishes, couscous is known in some countries under similar names, such as "cuscús" in Chile and "cus-cús" in Colombia, where it is adapted to local flavors. Its quick preparation and the diverse combinations of ingredients have made couscous popular as a fresh and nutritious salad, ideal for warm weather.
