Book Reviews of Tagine: Spicy Stews from Morocco

Book Review: A new perspective
Summary: 5 Stars

Years ago, while visiting an uncle living in Morocco, I was literally transported by the food. I was also struck by the atmosphere in the market in the old Medina in Casablanca; the aromas of spices and their startling beauty have been unforgetable.

Making tagine, a Morrocan every day basic, is now available for anyone willing to try a delicious and surprisingly simple choice of dishes. All you need to start is a tagine maker and this book. The degree of choices of ingredients coupled with the amount of time you have are up to you. Some dishes cook in 15 minutes, others require more time. But once you have everything combined in your clay tagine maker, time is labor free. I suggest you buy authentic spices without substitutions in order to attain the full impact of this delicious healthful way of cooking. This book could have told us even more but it's ideal to start out with. I was given the book and a clay tagine pot as a Christmas present.

Summary of Tagine: Spicy Stews from Morocco

Few meals are more satisfying than a hearty tagine--the rich, fragrant Moroccan stew that is served from its own elegant cooking vessel, also called a tagine. Meat, poultry, fish, or vegetables are simmered gently in the steam of the pot's conical lid, and the food, deliciously flavored with spices and fruit, remains tender and moist. In Ghillie Basan's collection of aromatic tagines you will find some of the best-loved classics of the Moroccan kitchen, such as Lamb Tagine with Prunes, Apricots, and Almonds, and the tangy Chicken Tagine with Green Olives and Lemon. Also included are less traditional but equally delectable recipes for beef and meatball tagines. If you enjoy a succulent fish dish, you can try Monkfish Tagine with Potatoes, Cherry Tomatoes, and Olives, or Red Mullet with Lemon and Mint. For vegetarians there is a varied choice, from a sweet, syrupy tagine of Yams, Carrots, and Prunes to a summery dish of Artichoke Hearts with Peas and Saffron. *Every recipe includes suggestions for accompaniments and side dishes. *The perfect introduction to the distinctive tastes of Morocco.
