What is a Kitchen Witch?

The Kitchen Witch

The Kitchen Witch

In ancient Greece the word for “cook”, “butcher” and “priest” was was the same -‘mageiros’- and the word shares an etymological root with the word magic.

– Michael Pollan

Kitchen Wichery

The Kitchen Witch’s potion is a soup and they’re magical wand is a trusty wooden spoon. They keep an altar next to the stove with an offering of salt for Edesia, Roman Goddess of feasting and food.

Cooking becomes a sacred art for the Kitchen Witch, they are not just a wizard in the kitchen but crafts a personal space with great intention and care.

Able to find Spirit in the dishwater and gratitude in the millionth load of laundry. Sweeping the floor free of dust can be a sacred act of cleansing unwanted energy.

A Kitchen Witch may not often dedicate a specific time and resources to ceremony, instead they work intuitively rather than ritually to find the magic in everyday life.

One reasons why cooking is regarded as a sacred art is that all of life is performed as a ceremony.

The Kitchen Witch may feel disconnected from the craft if they lose kinship to the ingredients that are most special to them.

They may feel the longing of juicy, ripe peaches in the middle of winter, and pray for warm comfort food in the summer if they lose balance.

Living in tune with what foods are in season during each time of year can help the Kitchen Witch restore sacred balance in life and home.

Am I a Kitchen Witch?

You might be a Kitchen Witch if:

  • You personalize your space with great intention and care; curating a sense of home.
  • You instantly know if a space resonates with you or not.
  • You love to cook with whole, organic foods as often as possible.
  • You love to grow your own food or visit local markets often.
  • You believe food is medicine.
  • You often cook for others to express affection.
  • You are always cooking or baking up a new recipe.
  • You clean with natural ingredients (and probably make them too).
  • You enchant ingredients before adding them to a dish.
  • A cup of tea is never just tea -it’s a ritual, it’s a brew, it’s been magically prepared for some reason.

The modern Kitchen Witch may feel off balance when home is not as it should be. Perhaps moving houses, living in a busier seasons of life, or is being pulled away from home longer than usual. The Kitchen Witch can teach others that the home and kitchen is a sacred space.
