The Real Witches Kitchen
Review (last 5 for this product, read more)
By Cate Gardner View ProfileThis thankfully is one of those occasions where you can judge a book by its cover. It is bright, fun and enthusiastic and inside this is combined with a no-nonsense approach and useful advice. What I particularly like about it is that it doesn't set Witchcraft apart from everyday life, it includes it and in no better place than the hub of the home, the kitchen. The introduction is careful to point out that things are not going to be any less effective because you create them in your own kitchen, with a modern cooker, rather than in the woods at night. Witches in the past had to work furtively and without mod-cons because of the times, not because it makes better magic.
This book not only contains some wonderful recipes for feasting around the Wheel of the Year, including Chocolate Brownies, which seem to come with their own 'disappearing spell', there's also soups and foods to strengthen and heal and brews and teas to try out. For anyone who thinks that it's just a cookery book with a fancy name, well, you couldn't be further from the reality. It has guidelines for buying and storing herbs and plants, recipes for soaps and bath oils, lotions, herb sachets and gifts plus some useful tips to get you started in candle and incense making and all this is imbued with a true sense of 'The Craft'. It's a good book, not too heavy on the Witchcraft side, but a great companion to 'The Real Witches' Handbook', a more in depth study of Witchcraft, also by Kate West.
By T Long , Brighton This book is crammed full of useful recipes for soups, teas, incense etc. I bought this book for my friend and have found it to be indispensable. Now I am buying it for myself. We can't put it down!
