This is the one I purchased for a secret santa - never made any of the recipes but they look delish!

I used the recipe from A Feast of Fire and Ice, The Official Game of Thrones Cookbook. They were a little chewy, and I feel like the recipe was missing something. It say "if you need more liquid", and I had to add lemon juice from 2 lemons to get the batter into the right consistency (might could have used a little more, even). But very lemony and tasty.

Definitely recommend that cookbook; I've used it for a couple of recipes and they've all come out pretty good. Instructions are clear, and they usually include a "modern" version and a version that would be more likely to match the books. I used the "old" version here, of course. :)

If it helps, here's the UK edition, and the Hardback comes up with a search under international shipping availability.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned The World of Ice and Fire, it's essentially a collection of the history of the world in which A Song of Ice and Fire takes place. It's also only recently been released. I haven't read it myself, but it's apparently a very good-looking book.

Along those lines are also The Land of Ice and Fire, which is a collection of maps for the same world and A Feast of Ice and Fire which is a companion cookbook to the series (is she likes to cook.)

Edit: you did mention that you're looking for something more substantial than just a book, so this may fall under that category, but it feels a little more substantial than getting her the next book in a series she's reading or something.

This is me lately. I still need more... MORE....

My favorite book is hard to choose. I'm going to go with The Giver by Lois Lowry, it's a book that sticks with me throughout my life. The most impactful scene being when the boy sees the color red for the first time. Something so small yet so powerful and the importance of knowledge.

I would love this book but any of the ebooks on my list would be fine!

This started with wanting to find something to do with a pork loin that had sat in the freezer for 3 months. It is the first attempt at my own variation of Pork Pie based on the recipe in the Game of Thrones cookbook - A Feast of Ice and Fire.


My first step of preparation as usual, occurred days before. On the Friday evening I took the ~4 lbs of pork loin from the freezer to the fridge adding lime salt, basil salt, and pepper. It probably would have been ready to go for Saturday's dinner, but worked fine for Sunday's.


This recipe would certainly work just as well with already ground pork, or sausage meat. But this pork in-particular was freshly ground by my prize $2 garage-sale-aquired meat-grinder (this style) that had been in my freezer for as long in the pork. A frozen meat-grinder (and even slightly frozen meat) supposedly makes for easier operation.


The loin was cut into long strips, and it retrospect it would've been well-advised to cut away the band of fatty connective tissue on the loin and only let the leanest meat through the grinder. This probably would have prevented the clogged grinder that was incurred. Once you have about a dinner plates worth of pork ground up, season it as you wish. I used salt, pepper, Italian breadcrumbs, Greek herb blend, a sprinkle of curry powder, and quite a lot of cayenne powder.


Set the pork aside. If possible, delegate the job of making the crust to a trusty assistant.


This crust is based on the Medieval Pastry Dough recipe from the Game of Thrones cookbook A Feast of Ice and Fire which calls for saffron, which I didn't have at my disposal.


Thank you to Brett, my sexy assistant, who was nice enough to mix, knead, and form the crust.


The recipe recommends first mixing the butter and flour by hand, then mixing the egg yolks and water, adding water as needed until dough is formed. The dough should then be split and rolled out to fit the shape of your pie cooking vessel, then pre-baked in a 325 degree oven for 10 minutes.


I used a circular glass casserole dish, but any ceramic dish would likely be fine. A cast iron pan might work well-enough, albeit at a lower temperature.


While the crust is pre-baking, cut and rinse your potatoes and carrots and boil them for 10 minutes. Bring a pan to medium-high heat, add a cooking oil (sunflower, grapeseed, peanut), add chopped onions and celery. Coat the onion and celery with additional seasonings, spices, rosemary, parsley, garlic, and/or breadcrumbs. Occasionally deglaze the pan with ale and broth.


Drain your boiled veggies, mix them with the contents of the pan. Add more broth and breadcrumbs to achieve desired consistency. My advice here is to place the veggie mixture back into the pot used to boil the potatoes and carrots, cover and put on a low heat.


Clean, reheat, and oil your pan. Brown the pork, stirring frequently. Deglaze. Add the veggies, mix, and
simmer for a few minutes. Transfer to a large bowl stirring occasionally to cool.


The rest is pretty straight-forward. Add the filling to the crusts, bake at 350 for an hour, carve it up, and enjoy.

On a related note I have the Game of Thrones cook book and it is amazing. Since this series is as equally about food, I see a cook book coming out as long as it doesn't get cancelled before season 3.
