Ratatouille is the 2007 Disney·Pixar movie about a rat who dreams of being a chef in Paris; its ride, Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, is at Epcot’s France pavilion and Disneyland Paris. This is our own quick, family-friendly version of a dish from the movie or the pavilion, not an official recipe.
In the movie there is a lovely scene about tasting two foods together and finding something new. This is our kitchen version of that, and it doubles as a five-minute party snack.
Make it a learning moment: most of what we call taste is really smell. Hold your nose while you take a bite and see how much flavor disappears.
