Why choose earthenware?
Earthenware is a natural material that does not alter the taste of food and slowly releases accumulated heat, ensuring gentle cooking respectful of ingredients. Over time, the tajine enriches itself with the flavours of previous preparations, becoming increasingly precious.
Ideal for
- Lamb tajine with prunes and almonds
- Chicken with lemon and olives
- Braised vegetables with North African spices
- Stews, soups and legumes
Before first use: seasoning
It is recommended to season the tajine before first use: soak it in water for at least 2 hours, dry it and warm it slowly on the heat with a drizzle of olive oil. This process strengthens the earthenware and extends its lifespan.
