Tagine New Orleans LA

Pronounced “tah-zheen,” tagines are North African stews that are usually slow-cooked at low temperatures in unique pots (also called tagines). These pots are made of sturdy clay, and they have two key parts. Once you’ve finished cooking your organic meal, you can remove the top and serve directly from the bottom.

Buying a Tagine

We focused on North African cuisine last week, including recipes for Orange and Radish Salad with Cinnamon Vinaigrette and Cinnamon Beef Tagine . Pronounced “tah-zheen,” tagines are North African stews that are usually slow-cooked at low temperatures in unique pots (also called tagines). These pots are made of sturdy clay, and they have two key parts:

  1. Lower than most pots, the bottom is round and flat. 
  2. A dome-shaped lid is specially designed to trap steam, keeping your meats extra-tender. 
Once you’ve finished cooking your organic meal, you can remove the top and serve directly from the bottom. Modern tagines often feature cast-iron bottoms that can tolerate cooking at higher temperatures (similar to Dutch ovens). Here are four great picks for your organic kitchen:
  • The lightweight Emile Henry Flame Top Tagine , made of burgundy clay (pictured above) 
  • The Le Creuset Moroccan Tagine , with a base made of cast-iron enamel 
  • The Emerilware Tagine , part of celebrity chef Emeril Lagasse’s cooking line 
  • The All Clad Stainless Steel Tagine , featuring a stainless bonded pan and glazed terra cotta cover 
Now, as you spice up your organic meals, you can also “kick it up a notch” in your gourmet kitchen. Happy shopping...
