Some of the characters I have much disdain for and others I applaud. This ‘game of thrones potato soup’ just reminds me of what maybe a hearty stick to the ribs soup might have tasted like back in Winterfell. I mean talk about trying to stay warm!
And, I’m thinking that serving it in this big wooden bowl would be much like what might have been served!

Another place that I’ve been lucky enough to visit recently!

On a side note, Ben and I’ve just started watching in the past few months ‘Breaking Bad’, too. Yes, we’re addicted and do the same binge watching that we did with Game of Thrones!

Thick Potato Soup Recipe
Check out this quote from Entertainment Weekly: “As for the final season’s content, so far the GoT team has managed to keep a lid on spoilers with unprecedented behind-the-scenes security.
Yet former Thrones actor Jason Momoa was recently visiting the set and teased to EW: “It’s going to be the greatest thing that’s ever aired on TV. It’s going to be unbelievable. It’s going to f— up a lot of people.”
You can thicken the soup without a slurry. Just bring it to a simmering boil for about 20 minutes. Stir occasionally so it doesn't burn on the bottom. Ooops, I let that happen, so that's why my soup has a more golden brown hue! You could make this soup in a slow cooker. Add all ingredients except celery and bokchoy. Cook on high for three to four hours. game of thrones potato soup
