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.

For the weight watch.

Valar dohaeris and valar morghulis are two concepts that have been thrown around the 8-season-long journey that is Game of Thrones. All men must serve and all men must die, but you know what? All men must eat.

Today marks the last episode ever *squeals* and while we’ve fallen in love with the Game of Thrones cast and watched them die one by one for a whopping 73 episodes, we hardly see them eat. So what do you eat in Game of Thrones? Any fine dining restaurants in Essos or Westerosi delicacies that didn’t make the final cut? Before we officially say “Our watch has ended,” bring out the mutton stew and ale while we take a look at the food we might’ve missed. That’s what we do: we eat and we know things.

Game Of Thrones Pigeon Pie Book Set

Lemon Cake

It’s crazy that we’ve spent 8-9 years with characters we’ve come to love and we never find out what their favorite food is, except Sansa. In this GRL PWR-filled scene with the amazing Tyrell ladies, Lady Olenna and Margaery want to know the tea about Joffrey, so they serve Sansa with her favorite: lemon cakes.

Pigeon Pie

Weddings in Westeros never end with a crazy reception – heck, they barely even make it through the “I dos” – but they do become episodes to remember. The Purple Wedding, the perfect example and one of the many satisfying death scenes in Game of Thrones. But right before Joffrey took a sip of the poisoned wine, he ceremoniously cut the largest pigeon pie King’s Landing has ever seen.

Direwolf Bread

Let’s get this direwolf-shaped bread! Hot Pie was a sweetheart, passing on to Arya the best gift a girl could ask for: food made from scratch, with a little bit of sentiment. You can watch the real-life Arya (Maisie Williams) help make her own direwolf breadhere.

Whole Chicken

Of all the Game of Thrones episodes that have seen the light of day, this episode is the one that launched the funniest Hound-related memes ever. A man of few words, these seem to matter a lot: “If any more words come pouring out your c*nt mouth, I’m gonna have to eat every f*cking chicken in this room.” A mood.

Sausage

Poor Theon… It’s bad enough being tortured and dismembered. But being teased with a sausage platter right after is just insult to injury. But to be fair, it did look crispy. *cringe*

Oysters, Clams, and Cockles

Filed under: images you can hear. We see Arya Stark, at the time of her life where she is no one. She’s tasked with her first assassination assignment, a real milestone in her career if you ask us, and she’s selling (you guessed it!) oysters, clams, and cockles while under cover.

Meat Pie

See Full List On Gameofthrones.fandom.com

The Game of Thrones x Hannibal crossover we never knew we wanted. Walder Frey had his hand at many things, but the Red Wedding is one of note. After spending a time with the best assassins in the world, Arya swoops in and avengers her mother and brother in the sickest way possible: feeding Waldery Frey with meat pie, made out of his sons. 100% pure human.

Bonus!

Starbucks

Now, we don’t know if it’s an Americano, a Chai Latte, or a Caramel Macchiato in there, but it is what it is. The famous Starbucks cup of Season 8.

Just like the rest of the world, we are extremely wistful to see the end of Game of Thrones. Gone are the days of avoiding spoilers, discussing Game of Thrones theories and prophecies, and still being floored by the writing and acting of the cast. It’s been real. Our watch has ended, but the feast goes on.
