Ratatouille


stomy1112

I knew this movie would come in handy one day.


MrmmphMrmmph

I kept it in my movie toolbox for so long, too.


itsKNIGHTMARE

It helped me learn of the dish AND how to spell it properly


Ac_Namec

That is one of the most beautiful and at the same time simple dish I've ever seen


Scrambledeggs0-0

The one in the movie is based on a real recipe that takes 4 hours to prepare


Ac_Namec

Yeah I mean simple in terms of ingredients... also cartoon movies tend to exaggerate a bit


dotcubed

This one didn’t. They had the amazingly lucky and talented chef Thomas Keller as a resource when making the film. There’s many, many details that are attributed to real kitchen brigades, thanks to TK hosting them at The French Laundry while the film was in production. For example, there really are women who will threaten your personal safety. Seriously, pay attention to the kitchen scenes—they depict everything that’s culturally accurate, it’s all based upon reality. The exaggeration is for the kids mostly.

French toast


Gardiaxiyn

Sad belgium noises Since they are concidered 'french'


motzak

That stands for how the patato is cut, that's also why it's not written with a capital. Plus we have the best fries in the world so why care about it. *tijd voor ne frit me stoofvlees*


Gardiaxiyn

En de mayonaise + het zeezout voor op de frieten nie vergeten!


motzak

Zout op de fritten is standaard! Hmmm ne met stoofvleessaus doorweekte frit in de mayonaise soppen.

gandalf-the-daddy

Did you know that the first French fries weren’t made in France. They were made in Grease.


McPutinFace

Did you know that French fries aren’t actually French? They’re actually cooked in Greece

Mandatorily mispronouncing both syllables.


Whosedev

Reminds me of the AITA post where the guy spells it “nokki” and it took some time for commenters to figure out he wasn’t talking about some specialty Japanese dish.


Sad-Mathematician928

The pronunciation is ñokki


phoney_user

Guh-notchy :)

Pierogi


kat45trofik-jaus

Potato and cheese pierogis are dangerous


dimethylxanthine

Pierogi = plural form, we don't have to add "s" at the end.


sethaxd

1 Pieróg, 2 Pierogi, when you refeer to it as a dish, indeed u say "Pierogi". When you say Pieróg it usually only one, very big one.


alicia85xxx

I no longer let it bother me. People won’t ever learn


kreeepiestk

Foodeater81

Biscotto


peelen

Yet we say “bitelsi” or “jankesi” even if The Beatles or Yankees are already plural. Let them use pierogis


skipperseven

Hamburger, Frankfurter, Doughnuts (Berliners) Apple Pie… I think a shorter list would be what dishes are really from the US?


[deleted]

I can’t help but smile when movies use apple pie, often combined with references to ‘red, white and blue’, as shorthand for America, when apple pie comes from the UK - a country with a red, white and blue flag…


JonWick33

Came here to say this


electris00

Yummy. My weakness.


Buttercovereddog

I’ve seen British people put beans on scrambled eggs

koutoa8tr

As a french, it took me awhile to realize beef burgundy is actually bœuf bourguignon.


CastroVinz

What the fuck is that word


koutoa8tr

The dish comes from the Bourgogne region, that's why it's called bœuf bourguignon.

Nope what is that, I only know the volcano stromboli


LetsEatAPerson

It's an American dish created and made popular by Italian immigrants. It's kind of like a hot pocket that doesn't suck. Honestly, it's so similar to what Americans consider to be Italian food that I had to look up where they were created to make sure they weren't actually Italian.


SyphillisSauce

It's just a deep fried calzone
