My life as a kitchen witch started many years ago when I discovered my passion for cooking and love for all things herbal and magical. Growing up, I was always drawn to the kitchen, watching my grandmother create delicious meals with ease and love. It was in her kitchen that I learned the importance of using fresh ingredients and infusing them with intention. As I grew older, my interest in witchcraft and spirituality began to blossom. I started reading books about herbs, natural remedies, and the power of intention. I learned about the magic that can be found in simple acts like stirring a pot of soup or brewing a cup of herbal tea.
There is also a big focus on foraged foods, edible flowers and, of course, herbs. Each recipe shares magical correspondences.
She is there in the bubbling of yeast, the rising of dough, the whipping of egg whites or cream into billowing clouds, and the scent of freshly baked bread. If you re craving connection to the craft of cooking, The Kitchen Witch Companion invites you in with poetic prose, visitations to the cycles of life, and reveals the secrets of the seasons.
I learned about the magic that can be found in simple acts like stirring a pot of soup or brewing a cup of herbal tea. I began experimenting with different recipes, always incorporating herbs and spices that not only added flavor but also had their own unique magical properties. I would light candles and say a prayer or chant as I cooked, infusing the food with positive energy and love.

The Kitchen Witch returns in this beautifully illustrated companion book to Sarah Robinson’s bestseller Kitchen Witch: Food, Folklore & Fairy Tale. including many of the traditional and seasonal recipes referenced in that book.
I found that not only did this enhance the flavor of the dish, but it also brought a sense of joy and fulfillment to my cooking. Over time, I developed my own rituals and practices in the kitchen. I would cleanse the space before cooking, using smudge sticks or burning incense to clear any negative energy. I would gather fresh herbs from my garden or local farmer's market, carefully selecting each one based on its magical properties and healing benefits. I also started creating magical recipes for healing and manifestation. I would create potions and elixirs using herbs and spices that corresponded with specific intentions and goals. For example, I would create a love potion using rose petals and cinnamon to attract love and romance into my life. In addition to cooking, I also found joy in creating homemade herbal remedies. I would dry herbs and flowers to make my own teas and tinctures, using them to heal and nourish my body. I found that connecting with nature and using the gifts of the earth in my cooking and healing practices brought a sense of grounding and balance to my life. Being a kitchen witch is not just about cooking or practicing witchcraft. It is about infusing magic and intention into every aspect of life. It is about honoring the earth and all its gifts, and using them to create nourishing and healing experiences. It is about finding joy and gratitude in the simple act of preparing a meal or brewing a cup of tea. My life as a kitchen witch has brought so much richness and fulfillment to my life. It has taught me to slow down, be mindful, and appreciate the beauty and magic in every moment. Whether I am creating a delicious meal for loved ones or brewing a potion for healing, I am reminded of the power of intention and the magic that can be found in even the simplest of acts..
