Fregola or Israeli Couscous at 6 Degrees on Solano

6 Degrees has been listing both Fregola and Israeli Couscous on its menu. Has anyone tried either? How can you tell the difference?

Similar in appearance but Fregola is toasted so it is darker and has a more complex flavor. Popular in parts of Sardinia. Here's a link to a Janet Fletcher article about it that has some different ways that it 's being used by local chefs.
