This month: Moroccan Tagine. Im so tired of snow and sleet and cold I dont know what to do; but it looks like were in for at least another week of it here, and a steaming, spicy Moroccan stew looks very consoling.

Sounds and looks delicious. I have been hungry all day. It started with the Chicken paws post this morning, and just went downhill from there. lol
I’ve missed you!!!
LOL!
We’re having tacos tonight. I got a real craving for them today.
I’ve been so busy I’ve missed me too!
Shades of The Man Who Knew To Much - a gorgeous Hitchcock movie in which Jimmy Stewart cannot eat chicken out of a tagine because his legs are too long to fit under the cushions and he’s not used to eating only with his right hand. My favorite scene in the entire movie!
Love Hitchcock AND Jimmy Stewart. I bought a video collection of lots of Hitchcock, including several of the silents; not sure that one was in it.
Hi everyone. We love a good stew. We have been giving our stainless steel pressure cooker a workout. Just love it. Bye Bye crockpot. Hope to make corned beef and cabbage in it soon. I’ve done it on a pot on the stove in the past and it never turns out very good. The clay pot idea sounds great. They even make large clay dishes to use under plant pots. Taking a break from all cooking today and hubby is in the kitchen (yea!) making scratch carmel corn. First time. In for a cold few days.
We are getting our coldest night of the year tonight. Down to -7 and snow is on the ground from last night.
So we cooked up a big bunch of chili. Started a fire in the fireplace which has our newly acquired insert. All set for the cold, but longing for spring. LOL
We made corned beef in the Instant Pot last year, and it was the best we’ve ever made.
I think you could probably do a good tagine in a Romertopf, too; that’s the closest thing I’ve got and will try it.
Doris Day and Jimmy Stewart dine in Morocco.
Had to google Romertopf. Had no clue, yes that should work.
I have a Romertopf clay cooker my mom gave me 30 years ago. I haven’t used it in years. This inspires me to break it out and try a tagine recipe. I love spicy, sweet and savory combos. Thanks for the inspiration!
Today, our high for March 3rd was the lowest in 146 years at -2 below zero. In 1873, the typewriter was invented for perspective. We’ve also had 44” of snow in a month. Maybe I need to visit Morocco for a tagine. :(
Just saw your post. Romertopf will be in use!
I think if you sear the meat on the range in a skillet, then saute the veg and put it all in the Romertopf and into the oven, it will probably turn out pretty well.
Be sure to soak the Romertopf in warm water for awhile just before using it in the oven.
Sounds great an a cold wintery day.... off to Africa and the Mediterranean.
My friend Sultan is from Libya an waxes nostalgic about chicken and rice his Mother made.
Point cut.
Joy of Cooking’s New England Boiled Dinner for St. Paddy’s Day! Minus the beets and carrots, yummmmm. And Aldi’s has corned beef on sale for $1.99.
This is the closest one I can find but needs a couple cloves of garlic. And probably could be halved and put in a crock pot.

Lent is coming up for some of us. Any good shrimp recipes out there?
Hint: 3/18 Corned beef goes on sale!
