Grant and Norah like the movie Ratatouille and mentioned that they’d like to try it sometime. So, I spent several hours one evening making the recipe from the movie, Confit Byaldi, by Thomas Keller of The French Laundry.

It’s a very procedural recipe, requiring a decent investment of time to roast peppers, create endless thin slices of produce and collate said produce. The end product looked great and tasted pretty good. The kids tried a bite and decided that it was more fun to see it on the TV than to taste it in person.

Oh well, I had fun making the dish.

Peppers for the piperade.

First, the piperade went down. Then the endless slices of veggies.

The finished dish.
