50 KITCHEN WITCH TIPS TO MAKE YOU FEEL MORE WITCHY

(And other useful things I've learned over the years)

Hi! This is a list of dos, don'ts, tips, tricks, and other fun things that I've learned over the years. I always love finding more effective and efficient ways of doing things so if you have any cool things you'd like to add, leave them in the comments or reblog. I'd love to read it.

Anyways... On with the list ^_^

Light candles around your kitchen space (just make sure nothing flammable is near you)

Annotate your cookbooks with the correspondence of the ingredients.

Mediating is really good to calm the mind before cooking.

Cut oranges and lemons thinly, dry them, and hang them with twine around your kitchen

Need a cleansing tip? Open all your windows near your kitchen. Let some fresh air in.

Cutting sigils into apples, pie crusts, and carved potatoes.

Save lemon and orange rinds, freeze them, and then use them to clean the garbage disposal.

Make infused oils and honey: Things like garlic honey, lavender honey, herb oil, sun oil, moon oil, dandelion oil, and other different edible oils are very fun and useful to make.

Hid sigils in pages of your cookbooks and kitchen witch journals.

Add some plants! Snake plants and spider plants don't need too much light, and growing your own herbs in your kitchen is awesome too. Basil, lavender, thyme, aloe vera, rosemary, etc. are good fits. You could also add some plants that require more sunlight on the kitchen window sill. Like cacti and succulents.

Bring crystals into your kitchen space such as rose quartz, clear quartz, amethyst, or whatever you want the space's intentions to be.

I keep a small money tree on the sill, along with cacti for luck and protection.

Make a simmer Pot! Mostly because it makes the whole house smell good, easy, and fun.

Stir clockwise for best results!

Learning how to pickle things is actually pretty witchy. Plus, anyone could do it as it requires absolutely no kitchen experience. You could pickle any vegetable, even if you don't like pickles. I originally learned this after having to take shelter from a natural disaster. A person brought a bunch of stuff and taught us how to pickle things with different spices and herbs. Very fun!

Decorate your kitchen with your favorite stuff. Crystals, decor, heat mits, that cool mushroom cake stand you've been eyeing at the World Market for the past 2 weeks, cool looking curtains, sun catchers. Why stop there? Paint the walls, hang shelves full of marked-up cookbooks that are a little too well-loved and thumbed through.

Wanna be the person that has the amazing-smelling house every time people come over? Syrups take some time to simmer down, it's actually a pretty good time to leave it on the stove to simmer. Since syrups have a lot of aromatic ingredients, it acts as a really good-smelling simmer pot.

Hang up herbs to dry with twine from cabinets that are rarely used.

Invest in that new set of plates and cups.

Homemade jams, butter, sauces, and syrups are your best friend.

Crochet or knit your own dish rags, pot holders, etc.

Don't pour extremely hot things into a glass that's not Pyrex, it will break, and you will be very sad about it.

Don't cook anything while extremely upset or emotional (For safety reasons)

Make recipes you want to make, not just because you'll like the effect. Make it because you think it's tasty.

Chinese Five Spice works in place of herbs for protection and luck spells a lot of the time! It's cheaper to buy 1 spice than 4 different spices that total up to 15 dollars when you could just spend 3-4 dollars.

Take a shower before cooking (I don't know how to explain this one other than it makes you feel better)

Don't use microfiber/plastic material clothes on hot burners, it will fuse to the burner and melt. It is VERY hard to get off.

I don't know if I need to put this one but I did see someone do it so nonstick pan = wooden utensils and plastic utensils, metal pan = metal utensils. Do not use a metal spoon in a nonstick pan, please. It can make you very sick.

Keep your pets away from hot oil, open ovens, and hot pans.

You can proof bread dough in the fridge overnight if you don't have the time to bake, or want to eat fresh bread right in the morning.

Need a quick witchy meal for dinner in 12 minutes? Use premade tomato pasta sauce and doctor it up with thyme, rosemary, and garlic, for protection and distilling stagnant energies. Serve with pasta of your liking.

You can substitute Butter for Crisco/shortening, buttermilk for 1 cup of milk + 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar or lemon juice, and heavy cream for 1 cup of half and half plus 2 tbsp of butter.

Use leftover animal bones to make bone broth

Teach yourself the art of bread scoring (It's fun, and you can show it off to your loved ones!)

Collect and hoard your own and others' family recipes.

Sometimes the food doesn't have to be a spell, sometimes it just makes you feel good and you don't know why.

Listen to your favorite music in the kitchen, it makes the monotonous things like chopping veggies move faster.

Invest in a vegetable chopper if you don't like chopping vegetables.

Find a really good hot cocoa recipe and make it once a week. Master it. Just for your own happiness because hot cocoa is really good. You could also be the friend/family member that makes the best hot cocoa ever.

Focaccia Bread Lasts a very long time, and it's very easy to make!

Keep a first aid kit near where the oven is, in case of burns, cuts, or serious injuries where time is everything.

Quick Bread and no-rise loaves are simple for beginners, tasty, and take little time. They also feel very witchy to make.

Study a bit of Herbalism! It's fun and really helps better understand the herbs you're putting into your food.

While something is boiling, put your wooden spoon over the pot to minimize the chance of something boiling over.

Try a bit of coffee magick, it's simple to get into, and gives you a boost of energy to take on the day!

If you're over 21, wine-making is a very interesting way to celebrate the sabbats. Just with that, make sure you KNOW what you're doing. With anything fermented, there's always a risk if you don't store things correctly. Apple wines, strawberry wines, dandelion wines, etc. all very cool to experiment with. If you're not over 21, vinegar is a similar way to experiment.

Hang up some witchy things, sigils, photos, cool magnets, and other things that give you joy on your fridge. (Sometimes if you are lucky they have some fun magnets at five below)

If you live in the US, for some reason, there are a lot of books in the book section dedicated to witchcraft and spirituality. At least where I live. And they are all under 5 dollars!

Teas are the cheapest and easiest things you can practice being a kitchen witch.

Dandelion Honey Recipe

This is a really sweet recipe for anyone looking to dabble in making their own herbal cooking, or if you’re looking for a vegan alternative to honey!

Ingredients:

200-250 pieces dandelion flowers freshly plucked

1 quart water

Sugar quantity according to infused water

Juice of 1 lemon

2 lemon halves

Instructions:

Pick your flowers freshly from the fields and rinse them well to get rid of any impurities and insects (add a cap of vinegar to the water to get rid of insects when washing the flower heads)

Sun-dry the flowers for 2 - 3 days

After they are dried, pick out the yellow flower blossom and keep them in a bowl. Discard the greens

Pour water into sauce pan and add flower pieces

Bring to a boil, cover and keep over slow fire for about 1 hour. Allow it to simmer slowly.

After cooking, when the water has been infused, strain the juices from the flowers well and press out all the juices of the flower. Discard the flower pieces.

Take the strained liquid back to the heat together with the sugar and lemon juice and squeezed out lemon halves (sugar quantity depends on the quantity of the strained liquid; if you have 1 quart you need 2.2 pounds sugar)

Mix well and bring to a boil

The ratio is 1:1 water and sugar. Stir well and let it cook slowly until the jelly sets OR until you are satisfied with the consistency

Skim and remove the foam on the jelly

Check if the jelly is good with a candy thermometer. The temperature needs to be 220 Fahrenheit/105 Celsius. You can also test it by dropping some hot jelly on an ice-cold plate. If it runs a lot it's not ready and needs more cooking

Sterilize your jars and keep a few drops of rum (or vodka) in the inner jar lids (helps preserve the jelly for a longer time!) 

Fill your sterilized jars to the rim, close with the lid and turn upside down to create a vacuum

Leave it upside down overnight. The next day, label your jelly and store in a cool and dry place. Store in the fridge once opened

LUGHNASADH SWEET CORNBREAD

Unlike regular cornbread, this is a more southern-style cornbread that's a lot sweeter than cornbread. But really good!

Ingredients:

1 cup flour

1 cup cornmeal

1/4 cup honey

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup butter

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

2 teaspoons baking powder

2 large eggs

A splash of cream

1 1/4 cups buttermilk

Pinch of sea salt

For The Honey Butter:

1/4 cup honey

1/4 cup butter

Preheat oven to 350 F. Combine flour, cornmeal, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together. In a separate bowl mix butter, sugar, and honey together. Then, whisk in your eggs, cream, and buttermilk.

Pour dry ingredients in increments to wet ingredients until just combined making sure not to overmix. Pour into a buttered and floured baking dish.

Bake for about 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick/knife comes out clean when stuck in the middle. This was just will my oven so cook times could be different when it comes to you. Make sure after 30 minutes, you check every 10 minutes.

To make your honey butter just combine your melted butter with honey and mix.

Serve in squares and top with honey butter and a tab of salted butter on top.

Enjoy! Have a blessed Lughnasadh!

*Blessed* Turkish Eggs

I haven't posted a recipe in a while, but I can't stop making these breakfast eggs for literally all my meals. Adding intentions and blessings into your cooking (in my opinion) is the easiest way to incorporate magick into your daily like. As with anything you make, you can charge and bless the ingrediants with their metaphysical properties to make a more magickal meal. As you'll notice the ingredients listed below all have various properties, however the overall purpose of this dish is Healing, Energy and Protection.

Ingredients (and the properties I bless for)

2-3 Eggs (Rebirth and New Beginnings)

1 Cup of Greek yogurt (Healing and Balance)

Half of a Lemon (Clarity and Focus)

1-2 Cloves of Garlic (Protection and Purification)

10-12 Fresh Mint Leaves (Healing and Communication)

1 Tablespoon of Butter (Comfort and Healing)

Dash of Paprika (Joy and Protection)

Dash of Red Pepper Flakes (Strength and Confidence)

Dash of Cumin (Protection and Loyalty)

Bread with good crust (Abundance and Comfort)

Salt (Protection)

Pepper (Banishment)

Recipe

Start simmering a pot of water on the stove top, keep the temperature low to ensure it is more of a simmer then a boil.

While waiting for the water to boil, begin mincing garlic cloves, and mint leaves.

In a serving bowl, combine greek yogurt, juice from half a lemon, minced garlic cloves, mint leaves and some salt. Set to the side.

In simmering pot, add however many eggs youd like, and poach for about 3-4 minutes. (note: do not stir water while eggs are cooking, also do not let eggs overcook, the yolk should be runny).

While eggs are poaching, in small shallow pan, melt the butter. Add paprika, cumin, red pepper flakes and a good pinch of salt. Allow to cook until butter has changed to a darker red color.

Remove eggs from simmering water and add to the mint greek yogurt base. Pour butter sauce on top of everything.

If desired, cut and toast bread in some olive oil or the residue butter sauce in shallow pan.

Mix everything together and enjoy on top of bread!

Note: This recipe is adapted from a few different 'Turkish Eggs' recipes I've seen. You can definitely add other herbs like dill or basil to the greek yogurt base, if you want to include different properties from the ingredients, or focus on one specfic ideal for your day you can! Kitchen magick is all about intentions, set yours as you cook or even before. The photo used for this recpe is not mine, (I eat mine before remembering to take a picture) it is from Eva Koper who also has a recipe for Turkish Eggs on her site. Thank you for reading :)

Protection spell jar recipe

Today in the Witchy Kitchen

I am going to make some delicious Spiced Oat Milk for the Autumn Equinox. The warm spices are perfect for a cool, crisp autumn day. Each spice has a lovely correspondence. Cardamom for luck, prosperity and love. Star Anise for protection and some honey to bring a little sweetness to your life.

Warm Spiced Oat Milk Tea

1 cup oat milk or other alternative 3 good quality black tea bags (Yorkshire Gold works well) 3 cardamom pods 1 star anise 1-2 tsp honey or to taste

Over medium low to medium heat, warm the oat milk and spices until you can see some steam coming off the milk. You may also start to slightly smell the spices. Add the 3 tea bags and let them infuse, squeezing them with a wooden spoon every so often. Once it gets to a colour/strength that you like add in the honey and stir (close to the end of warming). It is ready just as you see light bubbles come up. Add a little coconut whip and you’re good to go!

Happy (belated) Ostara or Happy Easter everyone!

I wanted to do a lemon lavender cake, but the store didn’t sell any lavender atm, so just lemon and vanilla cake it is 😅

The lemon strengthens friendships and the vanilla brings in love ❤️
