Traditional handmade clay Tajine | TAGINE

A BEAUTIFUL, HANDMADE DISH FOR PREPARING TRADITIONAL DISHES STRAIGHT FROM MOROCCO

Tagine, Tajine, Tagine – the spellings are different, but they mean exactly the same – a traditional Moroccan clay vessel for preparing delicious delicacies in Moroccan cuisine. Tagine is also the name of a traditional Moroccan national dish that is prepared in this vessel.

Tagines generally come in two types: lacquered and richly decorated, or made of raw clay.

What does Tagine look like:

A clay tagine is a deep plate with a cone- or dome-shaped lid. The secret of this oriental vessel lies in this cone/dome. During slow cooking, water collects on the inside of the lid and evaporates from the food. It condenses on the walls and returns to our dish. This method of cooking allows you to preserve the depth of flavor and aroma.

How to cook in Tagine:

Tagine is a dish that is cooked slowly. Originally, the Tagine is placed on a hearth where a live fire is maintained. And if we are preparing the dish at home in the kitchen, tagine can be prepared in the oven or gas stove (we place the tagine on a metal plate, which will help distribute the heat evenly over the dish).

Thanks to several hours of cooking, the meat becomes very soft, juicy and tender, so much so that it melts in your mouth, while the vegetables are extremely delicate and aromatic. After long cooking, the taste of the dish becomes consistent, intense and extremely rich. Like in a perfume bottle, it is difficult to recognize individual ingredients, but the resulting composition arouses the delight of even the greatest gourmets.
