Getting Medieval in the Kitchen

Celebrating the Last Season of Game of Thrones

I thought I'd have a little fun with some medieval foods. These recipes were taken from A Feast of Ice and Fire and they are all dishes that are mentioned in the Song of Ice and Fire books.
​For each dish, A Feast of Ice and Fire splits the food up into the  includes a quote from the book discussing the meal, a recipe for a medieval version of the dish and a recipe for a modern version. 

What's on the Menu?

From Winterfell: Beef and Bacon Pie and Onions in Gravy.

The pie was tasty and filling, and it looks like it's hard to make, but it's not. It was a huge hit with all the guys in my house. The onions were good, but the gravy took too long to thicken. I gave up and we had thin gravy. 

From the Riverlands: Leek Soup served at the Red Wedding! 

This soup was flavorful and a little spicy. However, I wouldn't want it for a last meal. 

From King's Landing: Oat Bread and Sansa's favorite Lemon Cakes. 

Tyrion always eats oat bread, so I had to try it. It was a heary compliment to the rest of the meal. Sansa's lemon cakes were amazing! They're chewy with a crisp crust and super lemony. I modified the recipe to make it even more lemony by making the glaze lemon-based instead of milk-based.  

Have fun this weekend and watch out for dragons!
