Not at all what I was expecting or hoping for.
I feel like I read a completely different book from all the other reviews. I was expecting a cookbook with either food correspondences or maybe chicken soup for healing things like. This is more a compilation of recipes from around the world and throughout many times periods. If you are looking for history and culture this is the book for you but if you are looking for a magic correspondence cookbook this probably won't be quite what you are looking for. The best and most useful chapter is probably the bread.
Kinda racist and not what I was expecting
This book was so intriguing! I tend to naturally try to throw my love and intentions into every dish I make but was hoping this book would be helpful with trying more powerful ingredients in my everyday cooking. Instead it’s just kind of an ok recipe book with some racist titles splashed here and there. I don’t think I’d recommend this book to anyone especially someone new to kitchen witchery. I think this would leave them with a bad impression of the craft.
SO DELICIOUS!
We've found a few favorites out of this cookbook immediately! I bought it and learned the basic bread recipe in it right around when the pandemic started, and it was such a life saver! There's a wide variety of foods and beverages in this book that make it so you're never going to be asking yourself what you should make. Also gives great magick correspondences and tips. Perfect book to add to your collection or give to your kitchen witch friends!
Great contents, not the cover pictured
The book itself is awesome, each recipe has notations of history and magical correspondence. Variations are given to accommodate diets and those needing non-alcoholic versions. I’m really enjoying it. It’s not a theory book, it’s literally a cookbook. My only disappointment (and reason I took off a star) was that the cover is not as pretty as the one pictured. It’s a little cheesy with the “kitchen witch” aesthetic.
Finally a book with a million recipes!
Most kitchen witch books focus more on the witchdry and Magick and spellcrafting part, but this one is a straight up cookbook with so many great recipes that are not difficult to make. This one is a kitchen witch must have. More important than the ones who spend more time telling you just the lore of certain foods and their correspondences etc.. Which I love as much as the next person, but still require a book like for much more...utilitarian purposes. I don't always need to summon something, sometimes I just want a perfectly corresponding dinner to the season! This book does the trick!
Eclectic and authentic
So impressed!! I love that it isn’t just strictly “pagan” recipes. It’s got stuff from all over the world!
Great variety of recipes
It doesn't come with the cover shown which I find odd. It seems silly to display a separate cover. However, the inside material is exactly what I wanted. There's a lot of variety when it comes to the recipes and most of them can be easily made. Sometimes the instructions are wonky but I tend to wing it when I cook anyway. Very pleased.
Amazing cookbook
This book is seriously so cool! The recipes have very specific ingredient requirements. But every recipe shows what they’re magical benefits would be. There are recipes from all over the world. A very unique and amazing cookbook!
I bought this for my friend
She loves it and used the wedding cake recipe for her son's wedding.
good and natural recipes
classic, good and natural recipes. this book is a must have!
