Le Creuset Moroccan Tagines are a beautiful interpretation of a traditional item of cookware.
Tagines have been used in North African cooking for hundreds of years - and the shallow base combined with the fitted conical dome allow for long, slow cooking while circulating the moisture inside the vessel, so you don't need to open and stir the dish during cooking so that all the rich flavors are preserved.
The Le Creuset Tagines have a shallow, cast iron base which can be used to brown the ingredients on any type of cooktop (gas, electric and induction) while the colorful, ceramic, conical top fits perfectly onto the base stays far from the heat source - so stays cool to the touch and allows for continuous condensation inside the vessel.
Your Le Creuset Tagine comes with a variety of recipes for many types of tagines. You will love this style of cooking both for everyday dinners and for entertaining.
Since 1925, the skilled craftsmen at Le Creuset have perfected enameled cast iron cookware. This type of cookware has many benefits including:
- All Le Creuset products are coated with the highest quality vitreous enamel. This hygienic, impermeable enameled surface means Le Creuset can be used for marinating food prior to cooking or for food storage after cooking.
- Le Creuset Cast Iron is a superior conductor of heat. The even thickness of the base, walls and lid mean that heat distribution is even and energy efficient. The heavy, tight-fitting lids ensure that moisture and flavors are sealed in the pot.
- Le Creuset knobs and handles are ovenproof to 400°, allowing for an easy transition from stovetop to oven to table.
