Customer Reviews

I can't express in words how much i love this book !

the ideias of cait to create a sacred space in the kitchen are wonderful , her recipes are delicious ,but above everything i love the meditations and the spell for a gretefull heart... although i'm not a kitchenwitch i'm enjoying more and more the time i spend there, Ms Johnson thank you so much for this inspirational book .

A heartfelt offering

This book lays out a spiritual practice of reconnection with nature and the seasons of the year through the food we eat and its preparation. As with all paths there is a need to establish the environment and rituals for practice that enable the alchemy of transformation. With chapters on setting up the sacred space of the kitchen and rituals based around the wheel of the year, the stage is set for connection to our world through feeding our bodies. The healthy, earthy vegetarian recipes sound deeply satisfying for both body and soul. The dishes I have tried were a joy to make and eat.

Spells and meals centered around the eight pagan holidays

The combination of Wicca and cookery is not usual, but works well in a title where the author shares spells and meals centered around the eight pagan holidays, ideas for creating a kitchen altar, and season preparation methods which account for planetary signs and changes. The recipes for seasonal fruits and vegetables provide plenty of ideas.

Wonderful

This is the book that started my Path... a wonderful book, nonthreatening and gentle, but also full of ideas to bring out your witchy side. A gem!

Double the Couldron Fun!

Well, I ordered both of Ms, Johnson's books "Cooking like a Goddess" and "Witch in the Kitchen". Imagine my suprise and disappointment when I found that they are the same book from different publishers! Both have the same yummy treats and are packed full of cooking lore and ideas. If you are a Kitchen Witch or just starting to explore, either one of these books is a must for a Cooks bookshelf.
