Street food Couscous — the authentic version
The best Couscous I've ever had came from a street stall, not a restaurant. The bright with preserved lemon intensity was completely different — more direct and uncompromised. preserved lemon was used without hesitation, the way it should be.
Tunisian cuisine is the spiciest of the Maghreb cuisines thanks to the importance of harissa. The a market food stall setting meant eating standing up or on a low stool, which is how this food is supposed to be encountered. mint tea was sold right next to it. Don't wait to find the 'right' restaurant. Find the street version first.
