Question: What is a bous bous in cooking!?
My husband and I were at a restaurant and a dish came out, compliments of the chef, and it was called a bous bous!. I have no idea how to spell it and have been trying to figure out what it is!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
i think what you are trying to say is amuse bouche!. this is commonly given for free in fine dining restaurants prior to the appetizers!. amuse bouche (where amuse may be pronounced a-mus and where bouche is pronounced as bush) literally means to amuse the mouth!.

An amuse-bouche, also called an amuse-gueule, is a tiny bite-sized morsel served before or first course of a meal!. These, often accompanied by a proper complementing wine, are served as an excitement of taste buds to both prepare the guest for the meal and to offer a glimpse into the chef's approach to cooking!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Are you sure it wasn't couscous!? I googled bous bous and nothing came up!. Here is a link to couscous!.
