This thread is meant for the pagans/witches/and other magical folk under us who use cooking as an expression of their beliefs and religion.

What is it?
Kitchen witchery is for folks who want to practice magick and witchcraft with an emphasis on cooking, food, and mealtimes. Feel super connected to the herbs you grow? Have an interest toward keeping a happy home with help from essential oils and herbalism in addition to your favorite cookbook? You just might be interested in a bit of kitchen magic, thanks to a kitchen witchcraft practice.

When you take the time to put meals together from the basic ingredients, you have a magical opportunity at hand. You can infuse every dish with intent and will. A meal can stop being something you dump out of a can, and start being a ritual in and of itself. When you take the time to prepare something with your own hands, it lends sacredness to the meal, and will make you want to spend time savoring it with your family rather than just snarfing it down on your way out the door to soccer practice. By changing the way you view food, its preparation, and its consumption, you can craft some practical magic at its simplest level.

STEPS FOR FOOD MAGIC
  1. Set your purpose or intention before preparing each meal. For bigger changes you may need more than one meal.
  2. Select foods and ingredients that are suitable for your intention.
  3. Choose foods that you enjoy. Just because something has the magical association you are looking for doesn't mean you should force yourself to eat something you dislike.
  4. Choose foods that contribute to a healthy diet. Don't let magic lead you toward an unbalanced diet of junk food. Self care, folks!
  5. Visualize your intention. As you are prepare the ingredients by chopping, peeling, and heating, visualize yourself in the life where your intention has manifested.
  6. Eat with intention. Continue visualizing your life where your intention has manifested. Visualize the energy of the food transforming within you into your magical purpose.
  7. Give it time. Magic manifests gradually and naturally. Your magical purpose will likely not transform overnight.
TIPS FOR MAGICAL COOKING
  • Make sure you're in a positive mood when working your culinary, magic. You are, after all, the most important player when it comes to the vibrational energy of the meal.
  • Meditate, cleanse yourself, listen to music or perform another self care ritual before you begin cooking.
  • Be sure your intention is clear while you work in the kitchen so that your food is imbued with the magical essence you look to create.
  • Share your magical intention for the food with anyone who is sharing the meal with you. Be prepared to only charge your portion if they are not interested in magical food.
  • Incorporate kitchen witchery into your practice most easily at the Sabbats. If you are already celebrating with a special meal or potluck with friends, try making something magical and seasonal.
  • Remember that it's not always necessary to look it up. Spicy food is generally protective, citrusy food is generally purifying, sweet food is generally loving. Do what feels right to you.
  • Consider starting a magical food diet that fuels your intention with foods that have similar energies. Check with a doctor or nutritionist before making drastic changes to your diet.

Just realised that I do most of that anyway. Does that make me a witch? 🤔
 
Those practices are pretty standard in our cooking. We do have a very annoying group called Herb-a-Life. They are known to get next to people and say things like "You're fat" or "You're going to die", to push their agenda and products. The last time I ran into one of them was in NOLA, outside a restaurant called "Mulate's". I finally turned to this young lady and asked her how the restaurant owner would like her harassing his customers? She disappeared back inside and joined her group.

Herba life is a diet group though, that's something else than the herbalists I mean. I mean traditional (alternative ) healers who use herbs like shamans and homeopaths.
