Vegetable tian is a traditional dish from the south of France, typical of Provençal cuisine. Its name comes from the earthenware dish in which it is slowly cooked. Made with thinly sliced and layered summer vegetables—zucchini, eggplant, and tomatoes—it is seasoned with herbs de Provence and a drizzle of olive oil. This light, colorful, and fragrant gratin can be enjoyed hot or cold. It is an ideal accompaniment to grilled meats or can be savored on its own. Easy to prepare, it is naturally gluten-free and suitable for a healthy and balanced diet. A feast for the eyes and the palate, perfect for an authentic Mediterranean meal!
