FAQ

Is the tagine safe for use on a stovetop?

The unfinished terracotta body is not designed for direct stovetop heat. Use it in the oven, microwave, or for serving hot dishes directly at the table.

Can I season the terracotta before first use?

Seasoning is not required. Simply wash the pot and lid, then dry thoroughly before cooking. The glazed interior provides a natural non‑stick surface.

What temperature range is safe for the oven?

The tagine can safely handle temperatures up to 450°F (232°C). Avoid sudden temperature changes to prevent thermal shock.

How do I clean the glazed interior?

Place the pot and lid in the dishwasher or wash by hand with warm, soapy water. Rinse well and dry completely before storage.

Is the tagine suitable for vegetarian or vegan cooking?

Absolutely. The terracotta material is inert and does not react with any ingredients, making it ideal for plant‑based dishes as well as meat‑based recipes.
