best cousouS?

Azul, salem, hello, salut, aloha, ciao to everyone wherever you are and saha eidkoum
I am new here, this thread has attracted my attention, it talks one of the most traditional food of north africa, sp le magreb..... I just wanted to give my point of view based on what happened a year ago I guess

Le couscous kabyle décroche le premier Prix du « Couscous Fest 2005 »

Entretien avec CHABI Thouria Le meilleur couscous au monde est kabyle. Cela n’est pas nouveau, puisque le couscous est un des plats originels de nos aïeux, mais la preuve vient une nouvelle fois de nous en être donnée.
Huit pays ont participé au « Couscous Fest », qui a eu lieu du 20 au 25 septembre à San-Vito, en Italie : le Maroc, l’Italie, Israël, la Palestine, l’Algérie, la Tunisie, le Sénégal et la Côte-d’Ivoire. On comprend la participation des pays d’Afrique du Nord, comme l’Algérie, le Maroc et la Tunisie, dont les ancêtres se nourrissent de couscous ou de plats à base de pâtes depuis des millénaires, le blé y étant cultivé en grande quantité avant même l’époque de l’empire romain. On peut aussi comprendre la participation de l’Italie, puisque le concours se passait chez eux, ainsi que celle d’Israël, pays qui abrite une forte communauté de juifs originaires d’Afrique du nord. Par contre nous sommes en droit de nous poser des questions sur le choix de pays qui n’ont rien à voir de loin ou de près avec le couscous, comme la Palestine, le Sénégal et la Côte-d’Ivoire. Mais ne soyons pas chauvins. Notre plat goûté et apprécié dans le monde entier permet de mieux faire connaître les traditions culinaires kabyles. La preuve en est que le premier Prix du "Couscous Fest 2005" a été décerné à deux kabyles : madame Thouria Chabi et monsieur Sid Ali Lahlou. Madame Chabi, cuisinière spécialisée en gastronomie kabyle.


mmm, this reminds of all the nice varities we could make with the finest couscous...olive oil and different kinds of dry vegetables... or with meat or chicken, or vegetables roots...

bye

Couscous competitions aren't really judged in a way in which you can be agressive to win...so....every year a different nations wins the event...just cos algerians won last tym doesnt really mean der the best....who won it last yr....and the yr before that...????...these competition are performed to gain publicity on the industry it self.....so the export of couscous grain is the real winner...

so it al comes down to personal preference.....and general consensus......

and everyone will always support der own nation...but saying that....would either countries admit to liking other typs rather then der own.....or will that be to hard for an algerian to swallow??!!! lol....

so yeah....one of dese days A & M.com need to meet up and put make every take the blind fold test.....


then we will know whose who......................:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
