    Great idea, must be a lot of work to try these recipes out. That honeyed chicken looks tempting though!

      Thanks! It is quite a bit of work, but we love projects, and the reward of delicious food is really terrific. You should definitely give the honeyed chicken a go; it’s received rave reviews at our house and many others!

        The honeyed chicken is the best! If I want people to think I can cook, I cook the honeyed chicken with the yummy buttered turnips. I had no idea I could cook chicken so well!

    Just discovered this site, and I could not be more thrilled! I can’t wait to see the Sister’s Stew from the first Davos chapter in ADwD show up here!

      Made some Sister’s Stew, it was wonderful! I made a double batch and froze some, thawing some for tomorrow. Will try to remember to post how it comes out. I didn’t buy enough turnips so I added some potatoes. When you buy your turnips, try to choose smaller ones, I think the larger ones have a bit of a bitter flavor.

    Even though it may be super simple, a big one is the onion soup at the wall. Simple but its partly why the wildlings came!

      To tide you over until we get to that recipe, might I suggest our Mutton in Onion-Ale broth? :)

    Any thoughts on a recipe for Lord Maderly’s meat pies, perchance?

    I know this will sound incredibly creepy, but do you have a recipe yet for the Rat Cook’s pie? Non-cannibalistic of course, perhaps switch the Andal king’s sons with a few choice cuts off a pig?

      Manderley’s pie is definitely on my list, with a few key substitutions. ;) I’m still looking for an extra large pan, though!

      I’d stick with chicken. I’ve always heard it said that human meat tastes like chicken (as does everything else).

    Wassail is a wonderful idea for your next book. My wife and I regularly attend a recreation of this ceremony over at the local cidery and it is awesome. We get a mummer’s play, plenty of warm, mulled cider, make wishes on the Wassail tree, and there’s always plenty of food (though I doubt pulled pork sandwiches are an accurate period-food!).

    For The Wall I think Sbiten would be a thing they would drink on a regular basis. It is originally a Russian honey based beverage, served hot. My grandmother is Hungarian and she had her own version. Enjoy!

    1/2 cup honey
    1 tablespoon whole cloves
    3 cinnamon sticks, cracked in several pieces
    1 whole nutmeg smashed (use a ball ping hammer)
    2 pieces of dried ginger
    2 cups blackberry jam
    9 1/4 cups water
    1 cup Slivovitz (Eastern European plum brandy)—optional nonalcoholic version replace slivovitz with mint tea

    (This makes 10 servings)

    In a medium saucepan, combine honey, spices, blackberry jam, mint tea (if non-alcoholic version) and water. Slowly bring this to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently until honey and jam completely dissolve. Remove from heat.

    Let the sbiten come to room temperature. Strain the liquid through cheesecloth, pressing on the solids, stir in slivovitz (if making alcoholic version) and transfer to an airtight container or bottle. A 750 ml bottle should accommodate this amount of sbiten. Refrigerate and reheat when serving.

    Reboot- (senior moment). I used Guinness as my beer of choice for the Black bread recipe. I cooked it in an iron Dutch Oven over coals. It was superb!!
    I plan to make this every time I go camping.
