Emile Henry Flame tagines are made from a new glazed clay material which is very heat-resistant, allowing it to be used directly on gas, halogen and electric hobs as well as in the oven or under the grill. It can be put in the dishwasher and even in the freezer (up to -20 degrees C). Tagines are traditional Moroccan cooking vessels. The lid, which looks like a pointed hat, allows the steam to circulate inside. The Emile Henry tagine is available in 2 sizes, 25cm and 32cm. The glaze on the tagine is extremely durable and resists scratching, so it is safe to use with stainless steel utensils. It comes with a small booklet containing a few tagine recipes to get you started, as well as care instructions. When heated, Flame cookware expands slightly, which creates small, thin cracks in the glaze. These cracks are not a fault and simply demonstrate the cookware's ability to resist temperature change
