Kitchen witchery is the art of imbuing food with magical intentions and focusing on hearth and home, from choosing certain spices to stirring food with intention, to bringing the spiritual into mundane cleaning tasks.
The kitchen is your altar, your spoon is your wand.
Uh, we require, we all require food to survive, so adding a little magic to a meal is a good skill to have in your witch repertoire.
So let's talk about the kitchen witch's most common herbs to use.
Ooh, what do we got?
So, well, I'm gonna go from my perspective.
I, for me, uh, garlic, onion, ginger, salt, and pepper-
Yep
... are pretty, uh, pretty common for me to be using.
Um, other staples in my kitchen are rosemary, cinnamon, uh, maple syrup, honey, and basil and parsley.
Mm.
Um-
I'm a garlic hoe.
I-
I'm not gonna lie
...
I either double or triple whatever a recipe calls for for garlic.
Um, I measure that shit with my heart, not what the recipe says.
With your soul.
With my soul.
Um, I generally do kitchen witchery to nourish my family and protect them, hence why a lot of my herbs are chosen, um, uh, herbs of choice are associated with protection.
So that would be your garlic, your onion, um, salt, pepper, rosemary, cinnamon.
Uh, did I miss any?
No, I think you covered pretty much all of them.
Yeah.
