Comment: Emile Henry Flame Top Tagine 12.5", Red I got a wonderful price on this item...74.95 plus free shipping! I couldn't decide if this was really what I wanted, hubby is sick of the kitchen gadgets I buy, no room left in the kitchen. But this was worth the investment by far. This is sturdy, but light weight stoneware I have ever seen. Cooks even, and moist, clean up NO problem, and it is a eye stunning piece. Eggs are wonderful in this, and meats fall off the bone. This was a great investment for my kitchen, and I recommend everyone try using this . The cooking is sooo flavorfull !

Summary: Great!
Comment: I vary using this and my smaller dutch ovens. Ive cooking decent large beef roasts and cornish game hens in this tagine. Great when you can get a slight boil on the lowest heat setting.

Summary: Emile Henry Tagine
Comment: Emile Henry 2.6 qt. Tagine, BlackThis cooking utensil works great. Consisting of a ceramic designed by Emile Henry to stand the cooking heat of either stove-top or oven, it works far better than the usual native styles of tagine and is also useful as a handsome stove to table to refrig cooking-serving casserole. It is especially designed, however for the production of those tasty Moroccan dishes known variously as cous-couses (actually the 'stew' part of a cous-cous) and is named for the dish created in it, namely, a 'tagine' or rich and spicy meat and vegetable stew of the sort beloved by Moroccans and others.

Comment: I love tagine cooking. I purchased a traditonal clay one years ago. You had to soak it overnight in cold water before use. I hadn't used in in over a year and I knew I was taking a chance when I didn't bother to soak it. I even smiled as I watched the crack form and spread. At last I had an excuse to purchase this one!
Dishwasher safe! No soaking, although you do need to boil milk in it before the first use. This size feeds six. I lucked out and found a black one at Crate and Barrel Outlet.
Although I was annoyed with the upkeep of a tradtional tagine, I didn't want to switch to stainless steel or cast iron. This new glazed clay is a wonderful innovation.
This one cooks evenly. Cleans up easily and is nice enough to serve from at the table. If you are serious about the cuisine, this is the one to purchase. I'm concerned about the cast iron and stainless steel ones by other companies. Those aren't traditional materials and they conduct heat much more effeciently. The food may cook too quickly. This is as close to the original as you can get without the prep and cleanup hassles that come with it.
