Moroccan National Dish: Couscous
Couscous is one of Morocco’s most beloved traditional dishes, often served on Fridays as a family meal. Fluffy semolina grains are paired with spiced vegetables, meat, and sometimes dried fruits for a balance of savory and sweet flavors.
The Tagine: A Symbol of Moroccan Cooking
The tagine is both a dish and the earthenware pot it is cooked in. With its conical lid, the tagine creates steam that keeps meat and vegetables tender and flavorful. It’s perfect for slow-cooked stews with rich spices like cumin, cinnamon, and saffron.
