Item Description

A tajine or tagine is a Maghrebi dish which is named after the earthenware pot in which it is cooked. It is also called a Maraq/marqa.

Explore the delicious flavor of the tagine. Spanish and Moroccan culture mixed for nearly a thousand years and this traditional cookware is ubiquitous in the Berber country of Morocco. Tagine is the name of the cookware and the prepared dish a slow cooked mixture of meats fresh vegetables olives and spices such as saffron cumin and cinnamon. The unique shape of the tagine allows moisture to condense on the conical lid and drip back down into the ingredients keeping them wonderfully moist and tender. There is a knob at the top of the tagine with a small ventring hole that makes removal of the lid very easy. Traditionally a tagine contains flavorful cuts of meat with a good amount of fat such as lamb shanks or chicken and the fat can be skimmed away later. Over hours the meat simmers with vegetables and spices until it is fall-off-the-bone tender. When the tagine meal is ready it is served directly from the bottom dish of the tagine.
