I absolutely adore how you explain everything and show what each step means to you personally. It helps me understand the dish and it helps me understand the food culture that it comes from, too. Thank you. I will try this recipe soon.
I once was raosting a a chicken and found a bag of frozen ratatouille in the freezer, I threw them around the chicken, and the result was amazing. since then I cook it from time to time wow, hats of for the French on this one.
Thank you, chef, for recording this video in English so we Anglos did not have to read subtitles. Your English is excellent, but obviously you would have been more comfortable speaking in French. Everything was crystal clear and precise, and those of us both beginning as well as further along in our cooking journey will be able to make this classic recipe.
Merci bien, chef! Absolutely beautiful presentation - I could almost tasted it! Now I will have the best way to prepare this dish. The biggest lesson was the importance of the order of sauté to build and deglaze the fond.
Merci Boucoup Chef! I tried cooking this for the first time and it is absolutely delicious! An explosion of flavours and seasoned only with salt, herbs and the seared deglazing of the vegetables. The prep work takes some time but the result is worth it! My family and I wiped clean the dish! Thank you again Chef Vivien!
Hi Chef Vivien! Thank you for making this video. I was wondering if that is a white oak cutting board? It looks like the cutting board I've been using for decades except mine is smaller.
Merci! Merci! Merci Chef Vivien. Your recipe for ratatouille is exactly how Mother used to cook it when we lived in Toulon (ma mere etait Americaine, mon pere etait Francais). While scanning through your video titles, I saw recipe after recipe that took me back to my childhood. Bravo Chef! So, so glad I found you.
@chefvivenENG I’ve been obsessed with your recipes and style of teaching and cooking. I made this yesterday. Exactly as you did. Wow!!! An explosion of flavors. Spectacular! I will be eating it the next few days. I left the seeds like you did on eggplant and zucchini. Imo tasted soo good. Only thing I did different . While cooking onions I also through in a shallot. I will be making more of you’re recipes. Ty! Ps- I didn’t use nonstick pan. I see why. While deglazing.. the flavors 😮😊unreal!
In essence: caramelize and slightly burn your vegetables (eggplant though!), then cook them thoroughly in lot of oil and season as you like. I am convinced and will try it. I enjoyed your video so much! Thank you!
Love his stories and information. I never grew up with this dish or had it. But I loved the movie ratatouille growing up, and always thought the red stuff was pepperoni 😂 but they’re tomatoes 🍅 it seems to be a very humble dish
We make a very similar variety of this vegetable dish in my native Lebanon. I think it’s a traditionally Mediterranean dish. We call it masbahet el darwish, which translates into the humble man’s rosary - the rosary of vegetables that is. We don’t add any sort of meat, though, as it’s a strictly vegetarian dish for us.
Are the vegetables, at the very end of the cooking process, really mushy? Especially the zucchini, in my experience, don‘t take more than a couple of minutes to be ready. Someone care to explain?
Chef Vivien mentions the cooking durations of different versions of Ratatouille: from 20 minutes up to 48 hours. He obviously recommends to put the ratatouille in the oven for about 35 to 45 minutes at 150 °C. If you want to do the slow cooking version, which supposedly would be the traditional version, you need an oven which can produce very low heat (as Chef Vivien explains) - and then, 48 hours make sense. You'll also need a lot (!) of time to cook a real Sauce Bolognese or a tender Goulash / Pörkölt.

if you try this with feta cheese, you are not going to eat it again in a different way
As soon as he said ratatouille I knew this was going to be authentic
Yeahhhh, this is my first thought too hahaha.
True❤
The thick accent 100% sold it
Lol
This is the best recipe for Ratatouille recipe I have seen. Key to this dish is to cook everything separately then combine as the chef demonstrates.
absolutely!
This is exactly how I prepare ratatouille...everything MUST be cooked separately to retain and amplify the individual flavors!
I prefer Remi's version.
The best ratatouille I ever seen with all the detail you are the best CHEF VIVE LA FRANCE
I don't know what sounds more delicious! The dish being prepared, or the accent of the man preparing it!!!!!!😊😊
the fact that you can grow this dish in the garden and have it cooked by noon is crazy. fantastic video and it looks delicious

An absolutely delicious dish, the recipe worked beautifully!
Thank you very much 🙏👌
Incredible chef, love his style, plain and elegant and simple. 🎉
As many have stated here, this is the best way I have found. Do everything separately, deglaze, add herbs, and low fire for a long time.
I enjoyed this video, really relaxing to watch great camera work and the tips were super helpful. I might actually attempt to make this. Thank you 🙂

Very nice 👍
美味しそうだな
It looks delicious! I plan to cook ratatouille this week, and of course, I had to see how a French chef makes it.
The french accent of our chef is also an important ingredient....
Do you have a restaurant?
watched the whole video until the end very entertaining XD
His reaction is what I am hoping 14:39 to have for myself when I make this 14:47 fingers crossed 🤞🏻
Nice smoke alarm
Would it be okay to deglaze with a little bit of white wine or is it not a Ratatouille then anymore ?
I really like your accent it is so addicted 😢
What pan do you recommend?
stainless steel or cast iron
Love his stories and information. I never grew up with this dish or had it. But I loved the movie ratatouille growing up, and always thought the red stuff was pepperoni 😂 but they’re tomatoes 🍅 it seems to be a very humble dish
Merci this is my first ratatouille 🎉
Namaste

3:18 😮 3:23 yes please tomato chips??
I like to put olives in it…. I prefer that one recipe to MarcoP white’s
Kon'nichiwa
I’m watching this while eating pizza pops
❤❤❤
lol. People think he said 48 hours. He said 20 minutes to 4 to 8 hours.
can we call Ratatoulle stew mix vegetables?
I think this one is the actual ratatouille that ego has ate when he was a child, the one that remy made for ego is slightly fancier looking
I'm glad I didn't go with the movie version...This is it.
*48 hrs!?*
looking at my crock-pot
edit: i'll make it but for second time i'll add *jalapeños*
Such a sexy dish! Thank you Chef Vivien! ❤
No pre salting of eggplant for half an hour then.
No balsamic?
This is the version i know.❤
Who knew weezy waiter could cook.
Does anybody know what kinds of restaurants to go to to try to find this dish??
This is authentic Ratatouille not from the movie
Beautiful
Are the vegetables, at the very end of the cooking process, really mushy? Especially the zucchini, in my experience, don‘t take more than a couple of minutes to be ready. Someone care to explain?
i don't understand, 48 hours ?
He means that you can keep it on the heat for up to two days if you want to.

Que delicia éxitos
by eggplant, you mean aubergine .. by zuccini, you mean corgette I believe 😂
"Hupla!"
Ce engleza stricata
Kinda puzzles me why tomato skins are removed but not the tough zucchini skin
Because in cooking the tomato skin separates an becomes hard añ chewy the zucçhini skin becomes soft and adds colour to the dish
Did you say 48 hours?! 😶
very slow movements in the kitchen
