- I've always wanted to try this dish from one of my favorite movies ever: Ratatouille. Turns out there's some rich history associated with it, and I explored 2 versions of the dish in this video.

THANKS!
A little precision, more than just thyme, you must use "herbes de provences" which often contain a blend savory, marjoram, rosemary, thyme, and oregano. You can add black olives too (without the pit). Something to know is that ratatouille gets even better reheated the day after, or the portion you have frozen in summer and be eaten in winter.
As someone who loves ratatouille, I can confirm that it’s delicious
NO SHIT
I love ratatouille, but the regular version. I had a job as a French cook (then later chef) when I was 18 and it was one of the first things I learned to cook. these days I like to grill the vegetables and eat it with fusilli pasta, good olives (usually Kalamatas or oil-cured black olives) and capers.
Being french and from the south of France where Ratatouille is the local dish, it is just delicious and I'm so glad you like it ! It's the perfect healthy, tasty, easy meal and a lot of us have grown up eating it. Great job !!!(definitely don't hesitate to put more herbs in next time, it usually comes with more than just thyme but that depends on your taste !)
Man, watching these videos during Ramadan is one of the most painful things to do 😂
Ikr😂
It's nighttime tho?
@@Sunny.From.OMORI4 ever heard of timezones?
@@Sunny.From.OMORI4 There are different time zones in the world
@Fah’d al Qasimi not everyone has broken fast yet lol
everytime i sit down for breakfast, this man's content is all i need for a cosy vibe to enjoy my food with
"That's some good smelling fingers" is one of my new favorite quotes
french guy making ratatouille regularly here. So I usually put white wine in it and almost no tomato. And the traditional way is to put a bouquet garni inside (usually thyme, rosemary and bay leaf) and let it simmer for at least an hour, for the juices to come out
Loved the imaginative way you filmed this video, especially the flashback. Also the dishes both look amazing, well done! Makes me want to make ratatouille now
Best cooking video ever. Brilliant concept! Love Ratatouille... the movie and the dish.
The thing about the scene with Ego, is that its not about the dish Itself tasting so good it took him to have a hella trip.
Its about how Remy could encapsulate the taste of Ego’s childhood that made the ratatouille so special for him. That’s why we dont see chef Skinner have a flashback either, the dish is good, yeah! But not that special for him as it is for Ego.
What tastes delicious for me may be whatever for the next person, but its how our mothers and grandmas made the food we loved that puts that dish in a special place 💖
What I like about it is that it is unashamedly vegan - it is not fake meat and 🧀 spelt with a 'z' because it's not real cheese. It is just good quality vegetables, done well.
I love dishes like that for exactly that reason. Never been a fan of fake-foods. There are some dishes - mainly one-pot-stuff with lentils or beans - where I only realized late in life, that they are actually vegan - I never noticed before because I never thought about them is such catagories, they are just good old soul-food.
Yeah, plant based dishes are severely underestimated in many parts of the world. Meat is awesome, especially paired with veggies, don't get me wrong, but not every meal should contain meat. You don't really need it to make a meal tasty, nutricious and filling.
Vegan/vegietarian foods that doesn't lie to themselves slaps hard
If you've tried Buddist cuisine before you know what I'm talking about because they are on a whole nother league
@@mikhael144vegan means absolutely nothing from animals, so no cheese and eggs. Vegetarian usually will eat eggs and dairy products.
I loved how your nostalgic flashback to your first time eating ratatouille was 30 minutes before😭😭
I made this dish for mothers day back in 2021. Had a hard time trying to find a ring mold though as it wasn't available at Wal-Mart so my dad and I eventually went to this small Asian furniture store and got one from there.
It wasn't tall though but it will do.
Lovely to see how far your skills have progressed and the video presentation. I`m glad you reached 3 M subs, you definitely deserve it! I appreciate your content, you taught me some highly useful recipes and cooking skills!
Try the layered kind with bread crumbs or thin slices of hard bread in between as well. It sopps up the juices and kind of solidifies it and gives it a bit of umph or something
Lovely video and a nice nod to the traditional version. I make this a lot using a recipe from Yankee magazine, which focuses on US New England states' culture. There is a French influence in parts of New England, and people love growing vegetable gardens so ratatouille is a nice local tradition. The Yankee recipe I have has many similarities with your French colleague's recipe, which made me happy to see. And combining with French bread is perfect!
That pixar ratatouille style brings back memory of the couple hours ago. That's what we called nostalgic moment in this video😂 this man is so funny,
Your cookbook arrived today. I'm looking forward to making your recipes! 😊
I have watched this movie many times. I guess now I gotta try the recipe. Loved the video. 💕
Your videos have always worked their magic.
Nostalgic feeling for something we've never experienced before: Portuguese has the perfect term -saudade! In French it's deja vu. There you go, thanks for the clip, I liked the original ratatouille best!
Déjà vu means something else.
Actually saudade has no direct translation in French. It is a nostalgia, sometimes sadness, longing for something that has existed or never existed even. It is a shame because all my Brazilian friends use saudade all the time and as a French I don't have an equivalent word.
Déjà vu, or in English deja vu, is an impression of experiencing again a moment.
Thanks for everything you do. You are the person who has made me view cooking as a pleasant activity instead of a chore. Love all of your videos and your personality 🥰😄
I made this but I used bell pepper instead of tomatoes for the layers, and the sauce underneath was just homemade tomato sauce simmered for a few hours. Then at the end, YOU DAB SOME GOAT CHEESE ON TOP on the plate - one of the best things I've ever made, have taken it to many family dinners since and it always gets eaten up. :)
I watch this movie yesterday and thinking about Ratatouille dish and sir you make the dish thankyou 🤝
Ratatouille is so delightful! I usually cook it with some kalamata olives and capers if I have them, and serve with a smidge of sour cream - mine also tends to be a bit more like a soup than a stew. I don't know how traditional those additions are, but they're very tasty!
I also always make sure that I salt and drain my eggplant before cooking it because it's such a wet vegetable - I wonder if that's part of the reason your fancily plated one was saucier than expected
Olives are a frequent addition to traditional ratatouille. I'm not sure about the capers though. But ratatouille is one of those dish that is a base to make different things so having fun with it is the best thing to do. As a French, I highly recommend eating ratatouille with eggs to let the yold and that veggie juice mix. Absolutely delicious !
“Why are we taking the peel off the tomato? What’s wrong with tomato peel?”
*Laughs in IBS*
Your book is coming in the mail today and I'm SO excited!!!!
Dudddeeee i bought garlic some time ago. And it did not have peels. I was so surprised, i thought it was a coincidence but it was actually bred to not have peels. Its called „solo garlic“ and you can buy it in the Jumbo in the netherlands. The thing is it is not only without skin the cloves are also not seperated so you basically have one big ball of garlic. I also wished for this to exist before, but when i accidentally bought it i got so creeped out, that i didnt use it anymore since.
Hey could you make a video with your favorite recipes, but dairy free? I am lactose intolerant. 😢 I love your videos and I know you would knock any dish out of the park with flavor. God bless!
Heyy classic french raratouille is soooo so similar to polish dish called Leczo! I think you'd love it! It's really so delicious it always transform me to my childhood since my grandma made it in summertime when I visited her 🥺🥺🥺
That scene resonates with me deeply.
when you say "with the bread it really works" it make me think about french rustic soupe. Its soupe but with the big chunk of vegetables and hot water, not mixed. And this with a good whole wheat bread or country bread (only satisfying noun for "pain de campagne" in french) will make you happy to be alive.
Nice one! I like your vidéos, I like travelling with food and with kids, I don't always avec time to cook perfect stuff so I like your ideas to "shake it up" (I don't know if this makes sense 😉. I would'nd recommand the lemon juice à the end end. For the traditional one after cooking it with the lid on, i usually let it cook some more without the lid so the juice evaporate ans the vetgetables confit. It add à sweetness and you Can use the Leftovers on bruschetta or tartine. You offen serve it with rice or pasta. I sometimes skip the eggplant!
You are awesome dude.. wonderful work. Both of them..
“Smell my fingers”👃 (50 First Dates vibes) ☺️🤓
You love beans, you should do a pasta con fagioli dish (traditional Italian peasant food)
garlic (original recipe says 20 cloves), bacon/pork cheek, borlotti beans 2 cans then add ~2L chicken stock and cook for like 6h slowly, then throw pasta into that same pot and cook for 30 mins.
Comes out a delicious warm creamy beany broth with pasta
I actually made this and I didn’t enjoy it but my friends and family did my the reason I didn’t like it was because I felt like it was under seasoned due to the watery nature of vegetables but all my friends and family said I did fantastic
Personally not going to devote 4 hours for a meal I wouldn’t enjoy but if asked by my mother I would gladly take the time
I’m talking about the Pixar ratatouille
I will eventually try traditional ratatouille
@@TomozAlpha Hi, French girl here ! Just a warning that the traditional version of ratatouille is also very juicy but that's what makes it so good and comforting. That juice contains all the veggie flavour as well as the herbs ! Because, as a Southern French dish, you *need* to put a lot of herb. Traditionally, you'd put "herbes de Provence" a bouquet made of roughly the same amount of thyme, oregano, rosemary and savory. It is also very good served cold the next day. Don't hesitate to add oil too !
Enjoy ! =)
I make it traditional most of the time. Its fantastic.
It’s not about this dish (ratatouille) but your own childhood dish that will make you flashback to that time whatever that dish may be
I like your sense of humor :)
Its very basic and simple, not alot of ingredients but I'm not gonna lie it looks delicious!!!
its funny how kwoowk says hes not a chef but he makes better food than any other cooking channel on the internet
“There’s nothing that can’t be solved with a blender pusher-downer” even divorce 💀
Could u rate street burritos bc I think u haven’t done any burrito ones I’ve seen
In Syria
We have the smae dich , same vegetables , seasoning thing , but we add small chuks of chicken or meat , finally we serve it with nicely cooked rice
KWOOK i recommend you doing rice with milk, the natonial dish (wich is "la bandeja paisa") and rice with coconut, fish and fried platan slices, from Colombia (arroz con leche , la bandeja paisa, and the rest is already clear) btw coconut rice , you can make it with lined coconut and to the fish you can put it with Lemon the green one , and the platan has to be hard and green and you can put salt ot the platan
i love vegetables so i cant wait to make this with summer vegetable garden veggies
Cookbook is needed 😮😮😮😮
Nostalgia for a time you've never known is called "anemoia." A project called 'The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows' named this, and a few other shared emotional experiences.
Bro it would be so sick if you made some Cajun dishes!!
Blender pusher downer lol the most accurate description 😂
Hello you are the best chef ever i seen. And please next make some Bangladesh food.😊
I really thought at first that the dish on the movie was the traditional ratatouille until I found out that it was a version of a celebrity chef.
Reminds me of Marcel Proust and madeleine 🥰❤️
In the Netherlands is it just called an 'oven' ?
The flashback to the same day 😂
6:57 thought he show footage having fav childhood dish as a kid lol
Looks delicious 😋
This was super cool 😎
Please try the Italian dish Parmigiana!! It tastes soooo AMAZING!!!!😍😍 I am sure Parmigiana can beat ratatouille
I have always wondered how ratatouille tastes. Maybe one day I will try it. Yours does look yummy though.
Not a big deal
It's yummyyyyy
6:52 not me thinking you're about to flash back to your childhood just for you to use a clip from literally 2 minutes ago but put under a black and white filter 💀
Ratatouille main message is that the best dish is not the best dish, but YOUR best dish. Ask 10 thousand chef and they all love their childhood dish, Simple as that.
I always knew Ratatouille was made of vegetables, but why did it look like pepperoni when Anton Ego took a bite 😭
I don’t really like vegetables, but this would seem real fun to eat with a Remi topper on it 😂
Make it with pepperoni if you want, Ratatouille is a folk food with several variations that can be changed how you want it.
I'm too lazy to deal with the tomatoes so I just subbed it out with pepperonis.
When you think, Anton Ego was taken back to memories of the traditional too.
Did you ever made or try habichuelas con dulce? It’s with beans, so it’s made for you 😊
Could you give us a receipe? I want to cook it, both versions.
can you try lithunian food its the best espicially plovas or celepunia
Keep olive oil out of him, he's turning into Gordon Ramsey
You're sure the movie was out when you were seven? Time really does fly.
As a French, ratatouille is one of my favorite thing to eat 😋
so i'm allergic to tomatos... and the only way i can eat them, is by peeling them. I feel you...
Can you please try Belgium Fries
Delectable at its finest
I'm paying attention and wondering how do you manage to get that container out of the own with your barehand 🤯🤯🤯
ay im Dominican I recommend you to try yaroa its pretty good
Can you try Tunisia food (kouskous) 😋
"Smell my fingers" LmAo!
Delicious 😍
Yessss 🥺🥺💕
Haha the cut at 7:00 made me chuckle
It is like "mix sabzi" dish in Pakistan.
Didn't know it is too famous because of ratatouille. I never early it when it is made in our home.
You are very cool cook 😎
Rating infonesian breakfast, please 😊
its probably meant to be a scraps dish
regardless tho: cheese ontop (prior to adding it to the oven) would be pretty good on it right...riiiight?? maybe add it 30 min before its done so the cheese doesnt burn idk
It actually wouldn't go to well with it ! The veggies give off quite a bit of water and the cheese would just get moist
Always make extra. This tastes even better the next day. Serve hot or room temp and you’ll give it a 9.5 ;)
Paste fericit 🎉
In Romania, we have something like this and it is called "ghiveci de legume".
pepperoni and cucumber with tomato sauce yummy
try the bulgarian banica or Patnaik
"Stop trying to solve climate change, just make garlic... peel-less"
What a quote
0:46 “I want to put it in mouth and be transported back to childhood”. Uh, are you trying to tell us something personal?
We have the same dish in greek but we bake it in oven and call it Briam
