2. Brown Butter Pot Pie

“The secret is browning the butter before making the dough," Hot Pie tells Arya in Season 7. "Most people don’t do that ’cause it takes up too much time.” Take a page from Hot Pie's (cook)book and make this next-level Chicken Pot Pie with Brown Butter Crust.

3. The Breaker of Chains Cinnamon Whiskey Coffee

Remember that time a TV show with a $90 million budget accidentally left a Starbucks coffee cup in a shot? (You likely do, since it only happened last week!) Celebrate that epic faux pas with this The Breaker of Chains Cinnamon Whiskey Coffee recipe. This coffee cocktail, sweetened with a cinnamon simple syrup, will also help keep you awake for any Game of Thrones binge watch.

4. Raw Oysters with Poison Sauce

Oysters, clams, and cockles. Any Game of Thrones fan will appreciate this Braavosi-inspired dish. This recipe for mollusks and mignonette, Braavosi-style, comes from Cozymeal Chef Chris in Atlanta.

RAW OYSTERS WITH ‘POISON’ SAUCE

Ingredients:

  • 12-16 freshly shucked oysters
  • 1 shallot, finely minced
  • 1 semi-ripe mango, cut into small cubes
  • ½ cup of champagne vinegar
  • 1 lime, squeezed
  • ¼ teaspoon sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly-ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon of fresh Thai chili or jalapeño, minced (remove the seeds if you want a milder sauce)

Preparation:

  1. Shuck each oyster, working the tip of your knife between the shells to loosen them. Rinse the opened oysters to get rid of any lingering sand or grit.
  2. Combine all of the ingredients in the vinegar sauce together over low heat, stirring gently until the sugar and salt dissolve. Allow the sauce to cool at room temperature, then for 20-30 minutes, for the flavors to marry.
  3. Top each oyster with a spoonful of the spicy-sweet mignonette sauce. Serve oysters cold.

5. Mutton Stew

Make this mutton stew from Food52, a Game of Thrones recipe that is guaranteed to be better than Flea Bottom's Bowls o' Brown. Don't worry, Gendry, there's no mystery meat in this mutton stew. There is, however, tender lamb, garlic, rich broth, fresh herbs and aromatics; all combined to make a hearty and comforting dish.

6. Cersei's Sangria

The Lannister family sure loves their wine, don't they? You can "drink and know things," too, by making this fiery red sangria. Cersei's Sangria is made with dragon fruit, blood orange, star fruit, mango, and (of course) the nectar of the gods.

9. Ceremonial "Pigeon" Pie

Pigeon pie is enjoyed by many Game of Thrones characters. Most notably, this ceremonial pie makes an appearance at Joffrey's wedding, where an enormous pigeon pie has been hollowed out and filled with actual pigeons. This recipe from Feast of Starlight includes no pigeons — live or otherwise — and is filled instead with red wine, quail (or chicken), vegetables, apricots, pine nuts and pancetta for a stunning dish worthy of any feast.

12. Black Garlic (Little) Fingerling Potatoes

For potatoes as black as the current queen's heart, Cozymeal Chef Cregg in San Francisco shares this delicious Game of Thrones inspired recipe. (Little) fingerling potatoes are roasted with a black garlic-infused brown butter, Parmesan, and herbs to create a unique and delicious side dish for your GoT banquet.

BLACK GARLIC (LITTLE) FINGERLING POTATOES

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound mixed color fingerling potatoes
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 4 black garlic cloves
  • 1 cup of unsalted butter, cubed
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Preparation:

  1. Cut butter into small evenly-sized pieces. Place into a light-colored, heavy-duty saucepan along with bay leaves. Melt butter over medium heat, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.
  2. Watch butter closely. The color will progress from a bright yellow to a golden tan, and then to a deep golden brown. Once browned and nutty, remove from heat. Remove bay leaves and transfer the butter to a heat-proof bowl.
  3. Once brown butter is cooled to room temperature, place into a food processor and pulse butter with the black garlic. Leftover butter can be stored in refrigerator up to 2 weeks.
  4. Preheat oven to 425°F. Cut fingerling potatoes in half lengthwise and combine the potatoes, 2 tablespoons of the melted black garlic butter, olive oil, rosemary, and half the Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Roast the potatoes in either a baking dish or cast iron skillet for 25-30 minutes, or until potatoes are slightly crispy and tender on the inside. Let cool for 5 minutes, top with the remaining Parmesan cheese, and serve.

13. Red Wedding Sorbet

Cool things off with a fruity, spiked sorbet that hopefully has nothing in common with The Red Wedding besides its name. This Watermelon Vodka Sorbet was featured in Taste of Home's Game of Thrones menu and we love its bright color and refreshing, clean taste.

For a tart that Brienne of Tarth would be proud of, make this Brienne of Tart recipe. This mixed berry galette is rustic, sweet, fruity, and fairly quick to put together. Buttery galette dough forms as the base, and is much easier to make and shape compared to pie dough.
