Cooking couscous for dogs

Couscous is a coarsely ground semolina pasta that is a dietary staple in North African countries. It is also widely used in Middle Eastern countries and has become popular in American dishes. It is made of semolina, flour, salt, and water. Similar to rice in shape, color, and texture, it is used in many dishes as rice would be. One grain is similar in size to a grain of sugar.

Boil water
For each cup of dry couscous, use 1 1/2 cups of water. Bring to boil in saucepan.
Add couscous and let steam
Pour 1 cup couscous into boiling water, stir once with a spoon, cover with a lid, and remove from heat. Let the couscous steam for five minutes.

Couscous grains tend to bind together in the cooking process, so fluff the grains with a fork.

Making cauliflower for dog food

Cut cauliflower into very small pieces.
Place 3/4 to 1 inch of water in a saucepan with a steamer and bring to a boil. (Note that is you don’t have a steamer, you can simply put the cauliflower directly into an inch of boiling water.) Add the cauliflower to the steamer and cover; reduce heat to medium and let cook for 5-6 minutes. The cauliflower is done when you can pierce it with a fork. As soon as it is pierce-able, remove from heat, drain and let cool.

Storage

The recipe can be prepared in large batches and frozen. It will keep for up to a year in the freezer, or one week in the fridge. Freezing vitamins preserves their potency. I would recommend portioning the food into meal size servings before freezing it. To defrost a frozen meal – put it in the fridge overnight.

Feeding Guidelines:
We suggest dividing the daily amount into two servings, one in the morning and one in the evening. Every dog’s nutritional requirements are a little bit different due to age & amount of exercise. If your dog is losing weight, increase food by 1/4 cup a day, if they are gaining weight reduce accordingly.
