Featuring perfectly cooked pearl couscous, each grain distinct and tender thanks to my own technique, this salad is infused with the invigorating freshness of mint leaves, zesty lemon, crisp cucumber, sweet cherry tomatoes, aromatic scallions, and the earthy notes of herbes de Provence. Topped with creamy feta cheese and rich kalamata black olives, this salad is a symphony of tastes. Ensure it’s served chilled by refrigerating it a few hours before the event, and finish it off with my homemade dressing just before serving for the perfect touch.
