Ratatouille only in summer?
Domestic cherry tomatoes are still available. Large distributors stock peppers, courgettes, and aubergines almost until December or all year round. In January and February, seasonal vegetables are a good choice. A winter ratatouille, for example, can be cooked with onions, beetroot, black salsify, potatoes, carrots, and tinned tomatoes if necessary. The vegetables should be cooked appropriately. The frowny original ratatouille is well suited to pre-cooking and can be stored in the fridge for several days. The vegetable preparation is suitable for a small pizza, with spelt pasta or as a ‘thick soup’ boiled up with plenty of grated Parmesan (or vegan Parmesan if necessary).
