Marrakesh Blue Ceramic Couscous Platter

Our buyer found this elegant platter when traveling in Morocco. A staple accompaniment to classic dishes like tagine, couscous can be found on most Moroccan tables. This platter—made entirely by hand in Safi, Morocco, a port city famous for its centuries-old ceramics industry—is perfect for couscous, other pastas, rice and grains. The wide dish holds enough to feed a crowd, and the gently sloping sides keep couscous from spilling as you serve. Each ceramic platter shows off an elegant Moroccan motif in a versatile combination of white and dark blue with colorful accents. As each piece is made by hand, some variation is expected from dish to dish and adds to its beauty.

Is couscous a grain? [/banner_heading]
Technically, it’s a pasta! Made from semolina flour (and often cooked in a spicy or mild broth in Morocco for extra flavor), couscous pairs beautifully with simple vegetables or grilled meat, like chicken or lamb. [/banner-text-break]
