[edit] Recipe

Once the recipe has been transwikied to the Wikibooks:Cookbook as they are specifically excluded from Wikipedia (see WP:ISNOT#HOWTO) - is there enough here to justify an article to itself or would it be better merged into the main Ratatouille article? I think it would be better merged. FlagSteward 21:17, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

I wrote the article. It's not a recipe. The portion describing how the dish is made is relevant to the dish and its notability, in that this was created for and a significant issue in a major film. It is a separate subject than ratatouille: a different dish with a unique history. Wikidemo 18:04, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Name is a misnomer

This recipe, (Kellers version, the article sems to make no reference to how the original was prepared) may be a unique way of presenting ratatouille but it is certainly not a confit, it's simply pretentious. Confits almost always refer to preserved meats or fruits and occasionally to condiments.Awotter 19:13, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

The culinary word is full of metaphors and allusions. I would call it creative use of two different languages. Wikidemo 23:18, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
