In Eretz Yisrael, Tu B’Shevat is a veritable holiday. For weeks before, the nut stores and especially the shuk display an eye-catching variety of fresh and dried fruit. I am always astounded at the plethora of colors, smells, and shapes of all the interesting fruits. It is a true feast for the eyes! I created this recipe to showcase dried fruit, so popular at this time. The sweet-and-sour dressing uses date syrup, a favorite healthful sweetener. Pomegranates are used for garnishing.
1 package couscous, cooked according to package directions
a generous handful cubed dried papaya
a generous handful cubed dried pineapple
pomegranate arils, for garnish
2 teaspoon water
1 and 1/4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 and 1/2 teaspoons Haddar Dijon Mustard
1 teaspoon Glicks Soy Sauce
2 tablespoons Heaven & Earth Date Syrup
pinch cardamom
1 teaspoon natural maple syrup
1 tablespoon Gefen Sesame Oil
Place couscous in a large bowl. Add the dried fruit and stir together.
In a small bowl, whisk together all the dressing ingredients. Adjust to taste, if necessary. Pour over the couscous and mix together. Serve warm, garnished with pomegranate arils.
