Tagine de Poulet au Coing
Chicken braised with saffron and ginger, hard autumn quinces poached to tenderness, then glossed with honey and cinnamon. A Fassi sweet-savory dish that asks for bread and a full table.

Updated June 10, 2026
The clay braise that glazes itself under its conical lid: chicken with preserved lemon and olives, lamb with prunes and almonds (the Andalusi sweet-savory grammar), the seasonal sweet-savory tagines of Fez, and the meatless tagine of the seven vegetables. A tagine isn't a journey, it's a Tuesday. Aromatics low, meat centered, vegetables arranged, the lid unlifted.
A cooking platform built around craft, culture, and the stories behind what we eat.

An eastern Moroccan tagine where lamb or beef braises with chickpeas until tender, then eggplant cooks past soft into saffron-gold silk. Bring khobz, because the sauce asks for hands.

Lamb or beef braised until tender, then glossed with plump figs, honey, cinnamon, and saffron. This is the Andalusi sweet-savory grammar, generous enough for a full table.
