I love recreating recipes that get mentioned in books I read and even shows I watch. I read A Court of Thorns and Roses a year ago now, and I’ve already posted the content on YouTube and Instagram, but I started listening to the audiobooks today which inspired this blog post.

The items I made are technically from A Court of Mist and Fury, but I don’t remember the context in which I read them. I’m excited to get to the parts where they show up again.

I made a stew which I’m pretty sure was mentioned in a tavern and I made scones and I think those were mentioned when Feyre was sitting by a fireplace when she was in the Night Court. I don’t know but we’ll find out soon.

I loved the ACOTAR series so much. When I first joined the BookTok community, seeing ACOTAR and ToG, it felt like a right of passage to read those series, but at the same time, I wasn’t buying physical books at that point so I had no intention of buying a billion book series. Then a BookTok influencer shared that amazon was having an ebook bundle deal on both the A Court of Thorns and Roses series and Throne of Glass series. So that’s how I ended up in the SJM fandom.

Below is the recipe for the scones and seriously they’re so easy and delicious you NEED to make them and then sit with your tea and pretend you’re having a chill day by a fire with a glorious High Lord.
