Buying a New Tagine Pot? Here’s a Quick Guide to Choose the Best and Some Great Recipes to Try

What is a Tagine?: The Art and Science of a Tagine Cooking Pot

A tagine (also spelled “tajine”) is a clay or ceramic pot with a unique cone-shaped lid design. The lid design specifically helps steam accumulate at the top and naturally condense back into the food. This results in the food turning out more moist, tender, and flavorful! Because of this natural steam condensation, this cooking vessel works perfectly for stews and other water-based recipes. On top of the better taste, the steam condensation has its own health benefits, too. The generated steam consists of water soluble nutrients that the body needs on a regular basis. With most other cookware, this steam escapes the pot/pan during cooking, meaning these nutrients are lost. With a tagine, however, these nutrients cycle back into the food as the steam is condensed, enriching the food’s nutritional quality – this is why the food tastes better, too!

If you are a health-conscious cook and you are considering getting a tagine pot for your kitchen, here is all you need to know about tagines, their health value, and some great tagine recipes.
