Discover the magical properties, qualities, and symbolism of 100 basic ingredients so they can add magic to any meal—at any time and in any situation.

Every house witch knows: the kitchen is an essential part of your magical practice. From preparing food to enjoying a meal, it’s important to honour the process of making a dish, to appreciate each individual ingredient, and to make magic from the recipes you already know and love.

First, dive into the world of kitchen magic and spellwork; then go back to the basics to learn the magical properties, qualities, and symbolism of 100 essential everyday ingredients so that you can learn to add a little magic to every meal. You’ll learn:

  • That chocolate (especially the rich, dark variety!) is associated with love
  • That snacking on figs can spark creativity and even help you earn money from your creative endeavours
  • That you should choose your squash wisely for different shapes, colours, and even growing seasons are associated with different outcomes
  • That onions can be used to ward off evil spirits and negative energies and can protect your home
  • And much more!

Transform your favourite recipes into magical spells, use different ingredients to maximum advantage, and enhance your kitchen witchery with the help of The Kitchen Witch.
