Staub Tajine - Cast Iron Base w/Ceramic Dome - 11" - Large - Dark Blue



Poke a Hole! ~ SO Steam can Escape & not Spew Contents
~ It is gorgeous....and functionally worthless.

This is my second Staub tagine and Staub's third tagine design.

Staub redesigned their product because the first model's design flaw was this:
Staub's tagine lid had a partial groove in the upper section that served as their dysfunctional handle.
When unit was in use, it was very hot, and the indentation in the ceramic lid was so shallow that it was tricky to remove the lid with a clumsy potholder, and not drop the lid on the floor.

Although my first tagine was red, with a far shallower groove than is shown here, Do, kindly see, their (OLD) original Staub tagine design has a hole for pressurized steam escape.

When I saw their newest design with the flanged lid in French blue and its elegant profile, I had to have another one. The base is essentially the same...
