Tagines, couscous, ras el hanout, preserved lemon, harissa
Moroccan cuisine sits at the crossroads of Berber, Arab, Andalusian, sub-Saharan, and French culinary currents, shaped over centuries of trade and migration across the Maghreb. The tagine—a conical earthenware vessel—is the emblematic cooking method, slow-braising lamb, chicken, or vegetables with preserved lemon, green olives, and the complex spice blend ras el hanout. Couscous, hand-rolled from semolina, is the Friday staple at family tables across the country. Sweet-and-savory pairings—chicken with apricots, lamb with prunes—reflect Andalusian influence. Harissa, fresh chermoula, and honey-lacquered bastilla complete the pantry. Rich with tradition and fragrance, Moroccan recipes reward leisurely weekend cooking.
