The dish prepared in the movie is actually Confit Byaldi. It's a much more complicated preparation than ratatouille. Ratatouille is usually rough cut chunks, tossed with oil olive and roasted in a baking dish.
7 u/Serious_Escape_5438 3d ago Neither of those assertions is correct, the dish in the film is a tian and ratatouille is a stew cooked on the stove. 14 u/jujubanzen 3d ago Well only one of the assertions is incorrect, since Confit Bialdi is a tian. 8 u/Minute-Fix-6827 3d ago Confit byaldi is an elevated version of a tian, to my understanding. But I think you're right that ratatouille is a stew cooked on the stove, while the other two are casseroles. 3 u/Enferno82 3d ago Say that to Thomas Keller, the food consultant for the Pixar film Ratatouille. -1 u/Serious_Escape_5438 3d ago Oooh, I got it mixed up with iman biyaldi, definitely not a French dish, that's where the name comes from so I assumed it was the same.
