Ratatouille is a French dish of stewed vegetables that originated in Nice, France. Recipes vary widely, but eggplant is always included in the mix. This recipe creates a refined presentation, with eggplant, tomatoes, peppers and squash arranged in neat, colorful rows. It’s seasoned with herbes de Provence, an essential component of French and Mediterranean cooking that contains thyme, basil, marjoram, fennel and rosemary. This herb blend’s flavor and aroma develop to their full glory with heat and time during the baking process, so be sure to use it prior to cooking.
