Title: A Feast of Ice And Fire
Post by: His Lordship on August 06, 2012, 03:54:37 AM
Food from the book "A Feast of Ice and Fire", recreating recipes from George R. R. Martin's popular series. This feast comes from the Wall, and includes food that was eaten by the men of the night's watch.

The whole meal took about 5 hours to cook and 2 hours to clean.
I should add that this recipe was made using almost entirely medieval ingredients. That was ****ing hard. Some of the spices in particular were beastly to procure, especially the mace and grains of paradise.
Even had to replicate medieval spice mixes - Poudre Forte and Poudre Douce.
My brother and I couldn't even finish half of it :(
Anyone coming to the UK IRL meeting will be treated to a Feast of Ice and Fire.

"If I could fly, I'd be back at Castle Black eating a pork pie" - Sam Tarly.

Onions in gravy - technically never cited at the Wall, but eaten in Winterfell by Benjen Stark of the night's watch. Probably also eaten at the wall.

The Lemoncakes are truly the only foreign food to the Wall. They are food from King's Landing, but we'll assume that Tyrion brought them up when he was visiting the wall.

Crusty white bread - found all over the Seven Kingdoms. Baked over a pan of water to give it extra crispness.

I hope you're not making just one pork pie. I can eat six of them, casually.

I'll make different stuff that will keep for a longer while and is more picnic-friendly.
