Enamel Over Terracotta Le Souk Ceramique Tangine Cooking Vessel Made in Tunisia

Description: This beautiful tagine from Le Souk Ceramique is a must-have for any kitchen. Made in Tunisia, this 2 1/2 quart capacity tagine features a colorful design and is compatible with both electric and gas stoves. The set includes the tagine base pan and lid, making it perfect for cooking up delicious meals. The polka dot inspired design adds a touch of elegance to any kitchen, while the 10 inch diameter ensures even cooking. This original piece is perfect for collectors and home chefs alike. Use it to cook up a storm and impress your guests with its unique beauty. A tangine is a cooking vessel used to cook African cuisine in its base and the cone shaped lid fits onto the base creating a air tight seal and when cooked on low heat the steam inside the cone shape billows around and around cooking the prepared foods already in the base of the vessel. This tangine is from the country of Tunisia a country in Northern Africa and the tangine was designed in the country of France and outsourced to Tunisia where experienced, skilled, and talented ceramicists create these beautiful and excellent cooking vessels as they originated in Africa centuries ago. A tangine, like the one in this listing, is made from terracotta clay that has been glazed over during its first firing in a kiln at high temperatures. Afterwards the cone shaped lid is hand painted with ceramic china paint giving this vessel a multicolored polka dot pattern that also displays well as an accent piece in a kitchen on the counter, snack bar, or on a shelf or sideboard in the dining area when not in use. The underside of this nifty item is unglazed terracotta and raw terracotta is ideal for low heat cooking as the flame heats it evenly and the clay in terracotta absorbs heat easily. The tangine, in this listing, is safe for a gas or electric stove and will not perform on an induction heating element. In addition it would be wise to purchased a 'heat diffuser' at your local hardware store for a nominal fee. The diffuser is a perforated metal plate with a handle that fits on top of a gas flame or electric element and spreads the heat evenly across the underside of the tangine while cooking your favorite dish in it and my favorite African meal is Moroccan Chicken. There are numerous recipes online for you to choose from to make that dish of a lifetime to impress your social guests at your next dinner party. And you may remove it from the stove top and rest it on a trivet on the center of your dining, brunch, or buffet tables. Besides the tangine Le Souk Ceramique has a line of dinnerware to match up the pattern on this tangine making a complete tabletop setting of earthenware to compliment your new tangine should you choose to buy it. The tangine measures, with the lid on, 10 1/2" X 10 1/2" in diameter across the pan on the bottom X 8 1/2 " in diameter across the base of this unique and unusual piece of cookware and it is in 'mint' condition and I never used it for cooking as I bought a much larger one for my own use. Underneath the tangine on the bottom of the pan reads the following: " MADE IN TUNISIA" below this "BY LE SOUK CERAAMIQUE" below this "COOKABLE-FOODSAFE" "STOVETOP LOW TEMPERATURE ONLY." Good luck!
