Hot-smoked salmon couscous salad

Large flakes of hot-smoked salmon lend big, bold flavor and protein to this easygoing no-cook salad. Not to be confused with the thin slices of silky cold smoked salmon you pile onto your bagel, hot smoked fillets are as tender and meaty as those you roast or grill yourself, minus the need to cook them. Just pour boiling water over the couscous to hydrate it before tossing it with the rich salmon, crunchy cucumbers, quick-pickled red onion and peppery arugula.

Any leftovers will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a couple of days.
