Chop your scallions, tossing the green part in a bowl and set aside, and the white part into a sauce pan along with celery, currants, and broth. Bring to a boil.

After it boils, use a strainer spoon to transfer the chunkies into the bowl with the greens, then add dried couscous to the pot, making sure to follow the directions on the box (every brand is different). As soon as cous cous is done, toss that with olive oil, balsalmic, and the veggies in the bowl. Let it cool some.
