TIPS AND TRICKS FOR FLUFFY COUSCOUS
The only thing to remember about making perfect couscous is to cook it entirely off the heat. Bring the water to a simmer with butter and then add the couscous once the water is boiling. Let the couscous steam off the heat for about five minutes, and you’ll have perfect couscous every time.
If spice isn’t your thing, skip the seafood rub. For a classic seafood flavor, you could use lemon and Old Bay on the shrimp instead.
CAN YOU SEASON THE SHRIMP AHEAD OF TIME?
You can season the shrimp up to 30 minutes in advance. More than that and the seasoning will start to pull a lot of water out of the shrimp.
CAN YOU FREEZE THE SHRIMP SKEWERS?
I don’t really recommend freezing these skewers before or after cooking them. They are best made fresh, cooked right away, and eaten right away. If you do have leftovers, they keep okay for a few days in the fridge, but I wouldn’t freeze them
