HOW TO USE A TAGINE
The Tagine is to be use on the top of electrical or glass stove or inside the stove. If you have a gas stove with flames please use a protective metal piece to protect your tagine from cracking. When serving place the Tagine on a wooden board to avoid cracking.
Cooking Tips
Tagines also require meals that have broth or water, never cook a dry meal in your tagine (ex. Frying eggs, searing meat…) avoid subjecting the Tagine to extreme temperature changes, which can cause the Tagine to crack. Any liquids that are added to the Tagine must be warm to hot.

What is a Tagine?
In Morocco, a tagine refers to both a traditional cooking vessel and the flavorful stew-like dish cooked within it. The tagine pot is a distinctive clay or ceramic vessel with a wide, shallow base and a conical lid. This unique design allows for slow, even cooking, with the conical lid trapping steam and returning moisture to the dish, resulting in tender, flavorful meals.
What to cook in a Tagine?
Our fair trade handmade Moroccan Tagine pot is made up of one base and one lid that has an easy to lift handle. The dish cooked in a tagine pot typically consists of a combination of meat (such as lamb, chicken, or beef), vegetables (such as potatoes, carrots, or onions), fruits (such as apricots, dates, or raisins), and a blend of aromatic spices like cinnamon, cumin, paprika, and saffron. The ingredients are layered in the tagine pot and cooked slowly over low heat, allowing the flavors to meld together and create a rich, fragrant stew

It is exactly what I expected and have yet to use it but look forward to doing so.

I purchased this tagine as a gift, and it was not used until after Amazon's return window was closed. The tagine was seasoned correctly, exactly as the manufacturer suggests. It was used with a heat diffuser, also as recommended. Great care was taken not to overheat the pot or to add cold liquids. After the first use, while cleaning, a hairline fracture was seen across half of the bottom. So, after one use, this $90 pot is now useless. Do not purchase this particular clay tagine and consider other options.

This is my second tangine purchase. The first was medium sized. This one is huge! I was able to cook 3 turkey wings and veggies with no problem. Could have added more. It's beautifully designed and super easy to use and clean. I wipe it down with a little crisco (cream) after washing and drying. It's the best tool to use when cooking lamb or goat. The meat falls off the bone. I use a diffuser so pot is not directly on the heating element.

I purchased this extra large one for family and friends I followed a friend advice by soaking it in water overnight and bake it in oven after that for a hour.

There wasn’t any instructions on how to care or if you has to cure the tagine. I am taking a tagine class and my instructor said to cure it so I did. On the slip of paper that did come with my tagine it states “using medium or high heat may cause breakage”. Well it did and I even used a diffuser. So it was my expensive lesson learned. Now I need a new base.I only gave three stars for versatility because I think there should have been better instructions. I haven’t found a place that only sales bases for a tagine so I am out of luck.I will say that my dish came out perfect wonderful flavor.

I love my large, traditional tagine! It works the same as the smaller one I got from this vendor a couple of years ago. I had a burn mark from the kiln and they replaced it immediately when I told them I like to serve from it and it's the centerpiece for our tagine meals. Thanks for a wonderful product and your prompt response.

I love this Tagine but it has 2 problems 1. As it is heating the dome at the top exudes a white substance. It is not supposed to have any lead in it but it worries me exactly what it is.2. The top of the dome has a piece of pottery dislodged. I hope this will not continue.There are no cracks in the pottery, however, it works very well.
