A Westerosi All Hallows

Because our lives are have been centered around Westerosi cuisine for over a year, it seems only natural that we infuse a bit of that flavor onto our holidays.

Just wait for our Thanksgiving and Christmas posts! ;)

    I think the “Sugar Skulls filled with plummy-cherry custard” would be perfect. (DwD)

      Agreed! I’ve got the skull part sorted, but am still fighting with the custard. It has to be smallish, and relatively free-standing, so it doesn’t dissolve the sugar of the skull…

        If you have the sugar skull idea worked out, can you give us a head’s-up on that? The idea may make it’s way into a baronial feast…

    Dishes with pears are good in the fall too, and pie fo venison or game birds would not go amiss (there’s a reason they get hunted, at least in New England, in the fall…..)

    I’m seriously excited about the sugar skulls, too. We throw a massive hallowseen party each year, and I’d love to make some of these treats for that!

    I keep checking back to see if you’ve figured out a sugar skulls recipe. Good luck!

      I think the key is to abandon the free standing custard idea, and put it in a mini bowl instead. Stay tuned. ;)

    So many fantastic ideas! I love what you’ve put together here. We’re not having a full-on Westerosi party (though I love the idea), but I think I’ll definitely try to incorporate some of these into our own more generic Halloween shindig this year. Thanks for the post!

    This year, I’m making an edible autopsy as my centerpiece. I’ll send pics on FB.
