Fregola

Other names: sardinian couscous, fregola sarda

[FREH-goh-lah] An ancient form of semolina pasta which is a specialty of the Sardinian region of Italy. The product is also referred to Sardinian Couscous (very similar to Israeli couscous but larger). To produce the pasta semolina flour is mixed with water until small beads are formed. The beads were traditionally sun dried but the commercial versions are toasted. The pasta is used in seafood soups, baked pasta and pasta salads.

Do you favor making sugar a government controlled substance like alcohol and tobacco?
