tips and insights
Spice masters
No other world cuisine surpasses Morocco's subtle use of multi-spice blends.
Pork and alcohol
Because most Moroccans are Moslems, pork and alcohol are traditionally avoided.
Meats
In Moroccan recipes, "meat" could mean lamb, mutton, beef, fish, chicken or even camel.
Meat-and-fruit dishes
Moroccan cuisine is noted for its frequent combination of meat and fruit. They are often cooked together in the clay tajine pot (see photo).
Sweets
Moroccans enjoy sweet cakes and pastries, often made with nuts and honey.
Similar cuisines
The cuisines of Tunisia (especially) and Algeria are similar to Moroccan cuisine, but each has its own unique dishes and cooking styles.
Best city for gourmets
Casablanca is the top all-around Moroccan cuisine city. Fez, Marrakech and Rabat are runners-up.
