Is it true that in Fez they traditionally don't brown the meat in a Tagine?

FEZ™~I'm Sassy~ asked:


I forgot to brown the meat the other day and my husband went off on me (okay, okay, it wasn't that bad!!) but anyway......I read before that traditionally they do not brown the meat in tagines in Fes, the gastronomical capital of Morocco. Is this true?

I was trying to counter my husbands argument with this fact lol.
