With that review, I'm ready to try it! Spring Mill is going to wonder why
there is spiked demand for their ratatouille turnover.

My heart skipped a beat when I saw a Ratatouille Turnover in the display
case at Spring Mill Bread Company today. As a kid, I lived in France for six
years -- circa 1967 to 1973. While there, I became a student of ratatouille,
which some of you might know as the ultimate culmination of Renaissance arts
and sciences.
Exiting the store, with furtive glances both left and right, I bit into
the turnover with no small degree of apprehension, tinged with a soupcon of
Francophilic trepidation. Could Spring Mill Bread Company's ratatouille
reside within the orthodox conception of ratatouille? Or would the chef's
interpretation of ratatouille depart too far from conventional notions of
ratatouille, pushing their ratatouille unceremoniously into avant garde?
By the grace of Michelin Guides, I am pleased to report the
ratatouille in the Spring Mill Bread Company's Ratatouille Turnover would
pass inspection in any boulangerie/patisserie in France -- or within French
territories. The eggplant is cooked just right and the tomato flavor is not
too overpowering. Just the right ratio of zucchini, potatoes, onions, and
tomatoes. It's not too sweet and it's not too oily. The texture would please
both Jean Paul Sartre and Albert Camus, and you know how difficult it can be
to get those two to agree on anything.
I'm giving the Spring Mill Bread Company Ratatouille Turnover a big two
thumbs up. Vivre la ratatouille. Vivre la France. En avant, Takoma Park. Le
jour de gloire est arrivé.
