- Remove the sauce from heat and stir in fresh lemon (or lime) juice to your taste.
- If not using immediately and planning to reheat before serving, wait to add citrus juice at the last minute.
- To cook the couscous, heat the broth, water, butter and salt together in a medium skillet till the liquid boils.
- Reduce to a simmer, add the couscous, cover the skillet tightly and leave on the lowest heat for 5 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the heat an leave it covered for another couple of minutes before fluffing with a fork.
- (If using instant couscous, check package directions - you may not need to keep it on heat after boiling, but just cover and wait till liquid is absorbed - just see if liquid amounts match what is mentioned on the package).

- COUSCOUS SALAD: In a medium saucepan, bring the cooking liquid to boil. Remove the saucepan from the heat, stir in the couscous, cover and let sit for 10 minutes. Fluff with fork.
- While the couscous is cooking, heat a large pot of water to boil. In a medium bowl, create an ice bath with lots of ice and water, set aside. Add the frozen peas to the boiling water and let blanch for 1-2 minutes or until the peas turn bright green and are warmed all the way through. Drain in a colander, and immediately drop the peas into the ice water bath so they stop cooking. Drain from ice water before adding to salad.
- BASIL VINAIGRETTE: Combine the ingredients for the basil vinaigrette in a blender, using a big pinch of salt and pepper. Blend until the dressing is smooth. Taste and adjust the salt and pepper to taste. You can also add additional honey if you want your dressing to be sweet, the 1 tablespoon was enough for us.
