Do you know the advantages of a tagine?

A tagine is much more than a cooking vessel. Its shape and history have turned it into an icon of Mediterranean and Maghrebi gastronomy, and into the perfect tool for enjoying recipes full of aroma and juiciness. The traditional tagine, originally made of clay and now reinterpreted by Vitrinor for use in any modern kitchen, has been at the centre of memorable dishes for centuries: lamb, poultry, vegetables, aromatic spices, dried fruits…
A millennia-old journey straight to your kitchen
The tagine was born in North Africa and today it has conquered tables around the world. Its conical lid is not just aesthetic: it is designed so that steam condenses and gently falls back onto the food, achieving slow, healthy steam cooking. That’s why stews come out exceptionally tender, with concentrated flavours and a unique texture.
In Morocco, the tagine was even buried in the sand during the day so the heat of the sun could slowly cook the food. At the table, the tagine is also a symbol of sharing: dishes created to be enjoyed in good company.
The Vitrinor version: tradition, technology, and versatility
Vitrinor has reimagined the tagine so it can be used in any modern kitchen, while preserving the unique touch that comes from its special style of cooking. The Vitrinor model is made with modern materials, making it suitable for gas, ceramic, and induction hobs.
– It’s perfect for slow, low-temperature cooking: its design brings out all the juiciness and aroma of every dish.
– You can prepare meat, vegetables, fish, or even legumes with spectacular results.
– Cleaning is simple and the presentation is always spectacular: take the tajine directly to the table and turn the meal into an event.
Juicy tips
– Place the ingredients that are hardest (potatoes, carrots) at the bottom of the tagine so that they receive more heat and liquid, and the softest on top.
– The juiciest cuts of meat make the most of the steam and flavor when placed on the upper part.
– Add spices, nuts and fruits as in traditional tagines to achieve unforgettable aromas.
A world of possibilities
– The Vitrinor tagine allows you to steam, stew and keep food warm for a long time.
– You can use the base as a ceramic casserole dish, even without the lid, for other preparations.
– It is energy efficient, because the slow cooking and conical closure help to conserve heat.
