Authentic Tagine with Handles – 30cm Handmade Terracotta Cooking Pot

Transform your kitchen into a Moroccan culinary haven with this authentic tagine with handles, handcrafted by skilled artisans in the heart of Morocco. This 30cm terracotta cooking vessel represents centuries of North African culinary tradition, designed to create the slow-cooked, aromatic dishes that have made Moroccan cuisine legendary worldwide.

CRAFTSMANSHIP & DESIGN

Each tagine with handles is meticulously shaped by hand from natural, unglazed terracotta clay sourced from Morocco’s rich earth. The distinctive conical lid features delicate hand-carved geometric patterns that circle the base—a testament to the artisan’s skill and attention to detail. These traditional motifs aren’t merely decorative; they represent the cultural heritage passed down through generations of Moroccan potters.

The natural terracotta finish showcases the clay’s authentic sun-baked hues, ranging from warm amber to deep ochre. Unlike mass-produced cookware, every tagine with handles bears subtle variations in color and texture, making your piece truly one-of-a-kind. The unglazed surface allows the clay to breathe during cooking, creating the perfect environment for moisture circulation and flavor development.

FEATURES

This tagine with handles combines traditional design with practical functionality. The sturdy wooden handles provide a secure, heat-resistant grip, allowing you to safely transport your tagine from stovetop to table. A protective metal band reinforces the base, preventing cracks and extending the cookware’s lifespan—especially important when cooking over direct heat.

The 30cm diameter offers generous capacity for family meals, comfortably serving 4-6 people. The conical lid design is the secret behind tagine cooking: as steam rises from the simmering ingredients, it condenses on the cool interior surface of the cone and drips back down, continuously basting the food. This self-basting process keeps meats tender, vegetables succulent, and spices beautifully integrated.

Compatible with gas stovetops, charcoal braziers, and even open flames, this versatile cooking vessel adapts to various heat sources. The metal base protection ensures durability whether you’re cooking indoors or creating an authentic outdoor Moroccan feast.

PERFECT FOR

Beyond cooking, this stunning piece doubles as a dramatic serving vessel. Present your culinary creations tableside in the same pot they were cooked in, creating an immersive dining experience that transports guests straight to a Marrakech riad. The natural terracotta aesthetic complements both rustic and contemporary table settings.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Before first use, soak your tagine with handles in water for 2-4 hours, then rub the interior with olive oil. This seasoning process strengthens the clay and prevents cracking. Always use low to medium heat and avoid thermal shock by never placing a hot tagine on cold surfaces. Hand wash with warm water and mild soap; avoid harsh detergents. Allow to air dry completely before storing.
