Caakiri (Couscous Pudding) By Stoned Soup


Caakiri is an African couscous pudding that is eaten in countries such as Senegal, Angola, and Cameroon. Traditionally it was made with millet, but couscous became a more popular choice. Think of this as a rice pudding, but with couscous. This dessert is dairy heavy, but is well balanced in sweetness. The combination of the orange blossom water, cinnamon, and nutmeg have a particular aroma that permeates through your nose when you eat it. This couscous pudding is best served right after it’s made.
