First use, cooking and care
Curing is the first-use step that prepares a clay tagine for heat. A new tagine can have a slight earthy smell and some fine clay dust, and both are normal.
- Cure it before first use: wash the base and lid with warm water only, dry them fully and rub the inside of the base with a little olive oil. Heat it in a cold oven to 100 to 150 C (212 to 302 F) for 1 to 2 hours, let it cool completely inside the oven, then wipe off the excess oil.
- Cook on low heat: use a gas or electric stovetop with a heat diffuser. Add a little oil, water or broth before heating, start low, and never put a cold tagine on high heat.
- Avoid sudden temperature changes: do not move a hot tagine onto a cold surface or into water. Handle it with oven gloves, because the clay gets hot.
- Wash by hand, without soap: once it is cool, use hot water and a soft sponge. Rub stuck food with coarse salt or baking soda. Dry it completely before storing.
- Do not use it on induction, or in the dishwasher, microwave or freezer.
Questions
How do I season a Moroccan tagine before first use?
Wash it with warm water only and dry it. Rub the inside of the base with a little olive oil, place it in a cold oven, heat to 100 to 150 C (212 to 302 F) for 1 to 2 hours, and let it cool inside the oven.
Can I use this tagine on a gas stove?
Yes. This tagine is made for a gas or electric stovetop. Use a heat diffuser between the burner and the tagine, add a little liquid first, and keep the heat low.
Does this tagine work on induction?
No. A clay tagine does not heat on an induction cooktop, and this one is not suitable for induction.
Can this tagine go in the oven?
Only for the first-use curing, at 100 to 150 C (212 to 302 F), starting from a cold oven. For cooking, this tagine is made for the stovetop.
Why do clay tagines crack, and how do I avoid it?
Clay tagines crack from thermal shock, which is a sudden change in temperature. Heat the tagine slowly on low heat with a diffuser, and never move it from hot to cold.
Can I wash a tagine with soap?
No. Wash this tagine by hand with hot water and a soft sponge once it has cooled. For stuck food, rub with coarse salt or baking soda and a little water.
What happens if the tagine arrives broken?
You receive a full refund. Email Kilimy support within 48 hours with photos of the packaging and the tagine.

Even more beautiful in person
The pieces look even more beautiful in person, especially when they are lit. The fact that you noticed the crack during your final quality check and chose to replace the piece rather than send it to me says a lot about the standards you have for your work. The letter from you and the certificate of verified origin were also a wonderful touch.
