Using this food reference

These figures describe cooked couscous. The selected portion is one cup cooked, not the source's separate measure describing how much cooked food a cup of dry couscous yields.

Water absorption changes the relationship between dry and cooked weights. Compare the couscous on your plate using the cooked gram basis, then add any oil, butter or other recipe ingredients separately.

Match the food before using the numbers

The selected USDA description is Couscous, cooked. Preparation, water loss, added oil, salt, edible skin, product formulation, and measured portion can change the nutrition of the food you actually eat.
