Did you know that in the beginning of Ratatoulli, the house he lives in is the food critic, Anton Ego's mother's house? If you watch closely, the food critic has that momentary flashback to his childhood which shows the inside of a kitchen, that's the same kitchen from the beginning as you can match identical details between the two. In addition, it can be assumed that this is how Remy the rat knows how to make Ratatoulli so well (the way that Ego likes) because as a resident rat in Ego's mother's house, he would have seen her make it many times. This also means that the old lady at the beginning was the inspirational cook for both Remy the rat and Ego the food critic. The rat making it the way Ego's mother did is what triggered the flashback in the first place which is how you get to compare the scenes with the kitchen/house. So yeah 😊 easter egg

Ratatouille is from Nice. I was born and raised there and I am very honored to see this recipe on english cooking channel! 👍 Little family secret (hope my dad won't be mad at me lol) 😂: If you make the recipe again, try to cook all the veggies separately with olive oil and then combine them all together once cooked. Add some anchovy paste and more olive oil (if necessary), cover with the lid and let simmer on low heat for at least 30/45 minutes! 😍❤️

Hell yeah. I saw that technique when looking the history of the dish. I tried it out when a customer brought some zucchini and squash in. Got an eggplant ajd sime tomatoes and gave it a try. Incredible. Each veggie first brings out their own flavor in the separate cooking, and then blend together beautifully. Never tried anchovies with it. Honestly I rarely use them at all. But it sounds like it could be really nice

It's so funny and cool, seeing you try to cook through the book without any real understanding of how to cook! As a trained chef myself, I find it really interesting and comical to see. Now once you're done with the whole book, go through and cook it all AGAIN. With all the experience you're sure to gain, it'll be a completely new experience the second time.

Ratatouille is one of my favorite things to make. I add mushrooms and black olives-which are delicious and also give the dish a meaty bite. I also add some red wine for added depth of flavor, as well as some herbes de Provence. The secret to cutting veggies is making sure your knives are freshly sharpened. It makes all the difference in the world.

Ratatouille seems to be magic because I don't like eggplant and zucchini only as soup, but I do like ratatouille.

Ratatouille is a regular weekly staple for us here in Normandy, even though it’s a southern French dish. I love experimenting with methods of preparing it, varying the way vegetables are cut, cooked, combined, spiced, etc. It goes with anything. My wife will use it even for making vegetarian lasagna, or we’ll purée some to add to pasta sauce. If you get good quality produce, the flavors are heavenly no matter what the technique. Thank you for posting this!

Just learning that this may be your first Julie series episodes. Perfectly appropriate for me in that it encompasses two of my favorite Foodie movies. I'm not a huge fan of the dish, but it's best served with a crusty hunk of freshly baked baguette as far as I'm concerned. I've made it a couple of times and always end up eating it on toasted, buttered, garlicky bruschetta.

This version is sooo much more complicated than the way my French friends taught me.

If you make a cross on the tomato with a knife (just cutting the skin) on the other side of the stem, it's way easier to peel the tomatoes after the hot bath.

Hi, interesting interpretation. Since Julia's time courgettes and aubergine (zucchini and eggplant) have been altered and there is no need to pre-salt to remove bitterness or peel. Also need to use garlic crusher for best mashed garlic and preferably yellow (or red) bell peppers which are sweeter. Glad you enjoyed them! 😎

I read the book, great book. Glad you are doing it.

I've always viewed ratatouille as more of a veggie stew type of dish. I was taught to cube or chunk the veggies and use crushed tomatoes in addition to cubed fresh tomatoes. sautée the eggplant and squashes separately, cook the onion and bellpeppers together until tender, add diced garlic until fragrent. dry white wine, tomatoes, basil and bay leaves for a 25 minute simmer. crushed red pepper adds a nice kick to it. very hearty main dish or pleasant side dish
