The series finale of Game of Thrones is tomorrow, so I wanted to party! This is a Pigeon Pie that they eat on the show, but made much more delicious because it’s Vegan AND Gluten Free! The crust dough is delicate so be patient with it. My video has many tips and tricks to help you through the process! Ingredients: Crust. Pigeon Pie is a staple of many of the kingdoms mentioned in Game of Thrones. It was even served at King Joffery’s wedding (complete with live pigeons). Sansa is offered the pie by Shae and Braun and his betrothed plan on serving it at their own countryside wedding - but the true heart of Pigeon Pie lies with the people of the Capital.

Game of Thrones: Pigeon Pie Recipe

I’m being absolutely honest when I say this has to be my favorite savory pie I’ve had so far. I’ve tried a few recipes online for pigeon pie and the recipe from Bon Appetit was my favorite. I love the savory and sweet aspect of it and the recipe I have today is a variation of it. Even though there are quite a few ingredients, this pie is really easy to put together. Most of the time and effort goes into the outside appearance of the pie but it’s so worth the time and looks incredibly impressive if you’re hosting a party. Honestly, if I can make this pie look half decent, I doubt you will have any trouble. You have to give it a try!

Tonight is finally the Emmys and I think it’s safe to say that Game of Thrones is going to sweep the competition. They already won a few awards during the Creative Arts Emmys a few days ago! The category I’m very curious to see who will win is Best Supporting Actress. I personally find it impossible to chose between Maisie Williams, Emilia Clarke, or Lena Headey.

• _______
• FILLING
• _______
• 2 tbsp - unsalted butter
• 1 tbsp - vegetable oil
• 1 - medium onion, thinly sliced
• 1 tsp - sugar
• ¼ cup - red wine
• _______
• 2 tbsp - vegetable oil
• 1 - medium carrot, peeled, small diced
• 1 - small onion, small diced
• 1 - medium stalk of celery, small diced
• 1 - bay leaf
• ½ tsp - cinnamon
• ¼ tsp - ground cloves
• 14oz - ground pork
• salt and pepper to taste
• ________
• 14oz - quail meat, bones removed (you can substitute chicken)
• ½ cup / 3oz - dried apricots, small diced
• ⅓ cup - pine nuts, lightly toasted
• 12 slices - pancetta
• ________
• HOT WATER CRUST
• ________
• 20oz - all purpose flour
• 1½ sticks / 6oz- unsalted butter
• 7.5oz - water
• 1 - egg, lightly beaten (egg wash)

1. Heat a saucepan over medium heat with butter and oil. Once hot, add the onions and cook for 5 minutes. Add the sugar and mix to combine. When the onions get soft, add the wine and cook over medium low heat until most of the liquid has cooked off and the onions are really nice and soft. Season for salt and pepper, set aside.
2. Heat a clean saucepan over medium heat. Add the vegetable oil and once hot, add the onions and bay leaf and cook for 3 minutes until softened. Add the diced carrots, and celery and cook for another 3 minutes. Add the ground pork, cinnamon, and cloves. Break the pork into small pieces and cook just enough for the pork to cook through. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside to cool.
3. Preheat the oven to 375F. Have an 8' spring form pan ready for the crust.
4. For the crust, heat the water and butter together just until it comes to a boil. Pour the water and butter mixture into the flour and mix just until it forms a ball of dough. Take ⅓ of the dough and place it on a lightly floured surface. Leave the rest of the dough in a warm place, covered.
5. Roll the dough out into a circle. It needs to be big enough to fit the bottom and sides of the pan. Transfer the rolled out dough to the pan and gently press it into the corners of the pan.
6. To start filling the pie, start with three slices pancetta followed by half of the pork, half of the onions, half of the apricots, half of the pine nuts, and then another 3 slices of pancetta.
7. Lightly season the quail or chicken with salt and pepper and fill the pie with the meat. Top another 3 slices of pancetta and the rest of the onions, apricots, and pine nuts. Pour in the last of the pork and finish with 3 more slices of pancetta on top. Set aside.
8. Take half of the remaining dough and roll it out to fit the top of the pie. Press the dough together to seal the seams. At this point, you can decorate the top of the pie with leaves, a crown, and a pigeon in the middle. Stick the add ons with a little bit of the egg wash. Cut 2-4 slices in the center (inside the crown) to allow ventilation. Egg wash the crust.
9. Bake for one hour. At this point, the crust should be lightly golden brown but if you notice your bird or edges are getting dark too quickly, cover it with foil. If you want to add any additional leaves to the side of the pie, I took the pie out when the top was lightly golden brown. Take off the ring of the springform pan and add any additional leaves. Pan for another 30-40 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 160F. Let it cool before slicing and eating.

Pigeon Pie Recipe Game Of Thrones 2

Pigeon Pie Game Of Thrones

This Thanksgiving I'm going to try to make at least one of their dishes for a warm and hearthy feeling, but it would be so easy to put together an entire menu from IatC. Here are my picks. -Cat

Main dish: spit-roasted hare

This is about as rustic as our recipes get. Limited by our current residency in the city, we roasted our rabbit over our porch grill, rather than a proper fire. The result, as you can see, is a picturesquely charred rabbit suspended over glowing coals. The pairing of the char on the rabbit and honey produces a taste reminiscent of barbecue sauce, smoky and sweet together. Although rabbit is prone to turning dry as it cooks, ours stayed juicy and tender — in part, no doubt, to the honey basting.

This makes for a rich, hearty meat pie. Pigeon meat is dark like duck, although not nearly so fatty (and if you're wondering where to get a pigeon, click here). The silky texture of the meat is the real show stopper, wonderfully soft and tender, complimenting the light flaky pastry crust. Although we used the suggested spices from a medieval pigeon pie recipe, we made ours much the same as a chicken pot pie, so it oozes with vegetables and a creamy sauce.

What Is Pigeon Pie

A bit of good black bread

This recipe is wildly easy, dense, and incredibly authentic tasting, partly because it tastes like beer.

The flavor of the beer really comes through in the finished loaf of bread, a deep, earthy bitterness that is countered by the small amount of honey.

The inside of the loaf is soft, almost crumbly, while the crust bakes hard, ideal for a bread bowl for a bit of Sister's Stew.

Modern cream of mushroom and escargot soup

An inherently a rich, decadent dish, the modern soup was divine. The creamy texture of the escargot is countered nicely by the fresh, clean taste of parsley. The wine in the broth adds a depth of flavor, and the longer the broth is cooked down, the creamier and more decadent it becomes. Also makes fantastic leftovers!

Lemon curd

Lemon curd is so unbelievably good, so decadent, that you will not believe us when we tell you that it's also easy to make yourself. But give this recipe a try, and you'll not resort to buying the overpriced jar at the market ever again.

Modern peaches in honey for dessert

The modern recipe is pure decadence. Grilling the peaches brings them to their absolute sweetness, and they half cook, making them reminiscent of peach pie filling. The thyme infused honey takes the sweetness and complexity to the next level. You will want to savor every single bite, and including a dollop of creme fraiche or vanilla ice cream will only add to the dish.

I hope this gets you as excited about eating for Thanksgiving as it did me. Good and hearty eating!
