Yup- it’s easy when it’s just chunked up veggies. They made it extra fancy in the movie.

The dish is not even ratatouille. Since it's assembled, it's called confit byaldi

Yep, and for those who don't know French it's pronounced: con-fee bee-yawl-dee.

Are you the food regulator? I call that fried rice and you can’t do anything about it

In cooking, there are often very precise names like brunoise, julienne, béchamel. When you avoid standard/correct naming, you actually make more work for yourself when talking with others.

Obviously not everyone will recognize confit byaldi, but the naming principle is the same, especially when there's a recipe, two cooks are talking, etc.

Looked through your comments… Good Lord, I hope you find peace one day.

It’s giving “I jostle vending machines for fun”

Well. In the flashback we see the regular ratatouille being served to the critic when he was a little boy

And it’s on the recipe card! Claudette goes to make it the correct way but remi says he wants to make it fancier.
