50 KITCHEN WITCH TIPS TO MAKE YOU FEEL MORE WITCHY
(And other useful things I've learned over the years)
Hi! This is a list of dos, don'ts, tips, tricks, and other fun things that I've learned over the years. I always love finding more effective and efficient ways of doing things so if you have any cool things you'd like to add, leave them in the comments or reblog. I'd love to read it.
Anyways... On with the list ^_^
Light candles around your kitchen space (just make sure nothing flammable is near you)
Annotate your cookbooks with the correspondence of the ingredients.
Mediating is really good to calm the mind before cooking.
Cut oranges and lemons thinly, dry them, and hang them with twine around your kitchen
Need a cleansing tip? Open all your windows near your kitchen. Let some fresh air in.
Cutting sigils into apples, pie crusts, and carved potatoes.
Save lemon and orange rinds, freeze them, and then use them to clean the garbage disposal.
Make infused oils and honey: Things like garlic honey, lavender honey, herb oil, sun oil, moon oil, dandelion oil, and other different edible oils are very fun and useful to make.
Hid sigils in pages of your cookbooks and kitchen witch journals.
Add some plants! Snake plants and spider plants don't need too much light, and growing your own herbs in your kitchen is awesome too. Basil, lavender, thyme, aloe vera, rosemary, etc. are good fits. You could also add some plants that require more sunlight on the kitchen window sill. Like cacti and succulents.
Bring crystals into your kitchen space such as rose quartz, clear quartz, amethyst, or whatever you want the space's intentions to be.
I keep a small money tree on the sill, along with cacti for luck and protection.
Make a simmer Pot! Mostly because it makes the whole house smell good, easy, and fun.
Stir clockwise for best results!
Learning how to pickle things is actually pretty witchy. Plus, anyone could do it as it requires absolutely no kitchen experience. You could pickle any vegetable, even if you don't like pickles. I originally learned this after having to take shelter from a natural disaster. A person brought a bunch of stuff and taught us how to pickle things with different spices and herbs. Very fun!
Decorate your kitchen with your favorite stuff. Crystals, decor, heat mits, that cool mushroom cake stand you've been eyeing at the World Market for the past 2 weeks, cool looking curtains, sun catchers. Why stop there? Paint the walls, hang shelves full of marked-up cookbooks that are a little too well-loved and thumbed through.
Wanna be the person that has the amazing-smelling house every time people come over? Syrups take some time to simmer down, it's actually a pretty good time to leave it on the stove to simmer. Since syrups have a lot of aromatic ingredients, it acts as a really good-smelling simmer pot.
Hang up herbs to dry with twine from cabinets that are rarely used.
Invest in that new set of plates and cups.
Homemade jams, butter, sauces, and syrups are your best friend.
Crochet or knit your own dish rags, pot holders, etc.
Don't pour extremely hot things into a glass that's not Pyrex, it will break, and you will be very sad about it.
Don't cook anything while extremely upset or emotional (For safety reasons)
Make recipes you want to make, not just because you'll like the effect. Make it because you think it's tasty.
Chinese Five Spice works in place of herbs for protection and luck spells a lot of the time! It's cheaper to buy 1 spice than 4 different spices that total up to 15 dollars when you could just spend 3-4 dollars.
Take a shower before cooking (I don't know how to explain this one other than it makes you feel better)
Don't use microfiber/plastic material clothes on hot burners, it will fuse to the burner and melt. It is VERY hard to get off.
I don't know if I need to put this one but I did see someone do it so nonstick pan = wooden utensils and plastic utensils, metal pan = metal utensils. Do not use a metal spoon in a nonstick pan, please. It can make you very sick.
Keep your pets away from hot oil, open ovens, and hot pans.
You can proof bread dough in the fridge overnight if you don't have the time to bake, or want to eat fresh bread right in the morning.
Need a quick witchy meal for dinner in 12 minutes? Use premade tomato pasta sauce and doctor it up with thyme, rosemary, and garlic, for protection and distilling stagnant energies. Serve with pasta of your liking.
You can substitute Butter for Crisco/shortening, buttermilk for 1 cup of milk + 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar or lemon juice, and heavy cream for 1 cup of half and half plus 2 tbsp of butter.
Use leftover animal bones to make bone broth
Teach yourself the art of bread scoring (It's fun, and you can show it off to your loved ones!)
Collect and hoard your own and others' family recipes.
Sometimes the food doesn't have to be a spell, sometimes it just makes you feel good and you don't know why.
Listen to your favorite music in the kitchen, it makes the monotonous things like chopping veggies move faster.
Invest in a vegetable chopper if you don't like chopping vegetables.
Find a really good hot cocoa recipe and make it once a week. Master it. Just for your own happiness because hot cocoa is really good. You could also be the friend/family member that makes the best hot cocoa ever.
Focaccia Bread Lasts a very long time, and it's very easy to make!
Keep a first aid kit near where the oven is, in case of burns, cuts, or serious injuries where time is everything.
Quick Bread and no-rise loaves are simple for beginners, tasty, and take little time. They also feel very witchy to make.
Study a bit of Herbalism! It's fun and really helps better understand the herbs you're putting into your food.
While something is boiling, put your wooden spoon over the pot to minimize the chance of something boiling over.
Try a bit of coffee magick, it's simple to get into, and gives you a boost of energy to take on the day!
If you're over 21, wine-making is a very interesting way to celebrate the sabbats. Just with that, make sure you KNOW what you're doing. With anything fermented, there's always a risk if you don't store things correctly. Apple wines, strawberry wines, dandelion wines, etc. all very cool to experiment with. If you're not over 21, vinegar is a similar way to experiment.
Hang up some witchy things, sigils, photos, cool magnets, and other things that give you joy on your fridge. (Sometimes if you are lucky they have some fun magnets at five below)
If you live in the US, for some reason, there are a lot of books in the book section dedicated to witchcraft and spirituality. At least where I live. And they are all under 5 dollars!
Teas are the cheapest and easiest things you can practice being a kitchen witch.

Samhain Mulled Cider
Apple Cider ( I got caramel apple)
Cinnamon Sticks
Orange
Pumpkin Pie Spice
In a crockpot put your cider, cinnamon sticks , and pumpkin pie spice. Slice up an orange and put in a few slices then squeeze the rest of the juice into the crock pot. Simmer on low for 3-4 hours. Serve warm.
If you are lucky to have access to mulling spices then feel free to use those. Pumpkin pie spice is just a ground mix of those spices.

Dandelion Honey Recipe
This is a really sweet recipe for anyone looking to dabble in making their own herbal cooking, or if you’re looking for a vegan alternative to honey!
Tumblr media
Ingredients:
200-250 pieces dandelion flowers freshly plucked
1 quart water
Sugar quantity according to infused water
Juice of 1 lemon
2 lemon halves
Instructions:
Pick your flowers freshly from the fields and rinse them well to get rid of any impurities and insects (add a cap of vinegar to the water to get rid of insects when washing the flower heads)
Sun-dry the flowers for 2 - 3 days
After they are dried, pick out the yellow flower blossom and keep them in a bowl. Discard the greens
Pour water into sauce pan and add flower pieces
Bring to a boil, cover and keep over slow fire for about 1 hour. Allow it to simmer slowly.
After cooking, when the water has been infused, strain the juices from the flowers well and press out all the juices of the flower. Discard the flower pieces.
Take the strained liquid back to the heat together with the sugar and lemon juice and squeezed out lemon halves (sugar quantity depends on the quantity of the strained liquid; if you have 1 quart you need 2.2 pounds sugar)
Mix well and bring to a boil
The ratio is 1:1 water and sugar. Stir well and let it cook slowly until the jelly sets OR until you are satisfied with the consistency
Skim and remove the foam on the jelly
Check if the jelly is good with a candy thermometer. The temperature needs to be 220 Fahrenheit/105 Celsius. You can also test it by dropping some hot jelly on an ice-cold plate. If it runs a lot it's not ready and needs more cooking
Sterilize your jars and keep a few drops of rum (or vodka) in the inner jar lids (helps preserve the jelly for a longer time!) 
Fill your sterilized jars to the rim, close with the lid and turn upside down to create a vacuum
Leave it upside down overnight. The next day, label your jelly and store in a cool and dry place. Store in the fridge once opened

The lemon strengthens friendships and the vanilla brings in love ❤️

LUGHNASADH SWEET CORNBREAD
Unlike regular cornbread, this is a more southern-style cornbread that's a lot sweeter than cornbread. But really good!
Ingredients:
1 cup flour
1 cup cornmeal
1/4 cup honey
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup butter
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 large eggs
A splash of cream
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
Pinch of sea salt
For The Honey Butter:
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup butter
Preheat oven to 350 F. Combine flour, cornmeal, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together. In a separate bowl mix butter, sugar, and honey together. Then, whisk in your eggs, cream, and buttermilk.
Pour dry ingredients in increments to wet ingredients until just combined making sure not to overmix. Pour into a buttered and floured baking dish.
Bake for about 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick/knife comes out clean when stuck in the middle. This was just will my oven so cook times could be different when it comes to you. Make sure after 30 minutes, you check every 10 minutes.
To make your honey butter just combine your melted butter with honey and mix.
Serve in squares and top with honey butter and a tab of salted butter on top.
Enjoy! Have a blessed Lughnasadh!

Rue
Rue, also called ruta or the Holy herb, is one I grow in my garden and keep in my witch’s herb cabinet. It’s exorcist and purification powers are strong. Use it in uncrossing work, protection magic, and to ward off evil spirits. Traditionally, it was used in Four Thieves Vinegar to ward off illness including the Black Plague. Be careful when handling, as it can irritate the skin in some people.. Chamomile
Ever had a cup of chamomile tea to help soothe a sore throat or calm your nerves in the evening? Chamomile is known for its medicinal qualities, but it’s also amazing magically! Chamomile is associated with the sun, so I use it often in abundance and health workings. It’s a great one to have in the witch’s herb cabinet.Rosemary
You’ve heard it once. You’ll hear it again. If you don’t have rosemary on-hand, you need to! It’s one of those all-purpose herbs that you can literally use for any kind of magic. I grow rosemary and make it into smudge bundles to cleanse my space. I also use it in herbal baths, magical meals, and natural hair care. Get you some rosemary, witch! Bonus: it’s super easy to grow!3. Bay
Many people have bay leaves right in their kitchen cabinet and don’t realize how powerful they are. In ancient times, they were used to increase psychic abilities and induce visions. Write a wish on a bay leaf and burn it. Add to spell bags and herbal offerings to Greek and Roman gods. I use it in my cooking often to enhance sauces and meat dishes. If you can grow your own bay tree, even better. The fresher the bay leaves the stronger the effect

Low-Effort Golden Milk
I saw a recipe for golden milk on Quincy's Tavern TikTok, and I decided to give a it a go with the ingredients I had around the house but being in a low-functioning depression stage right now I was not about to use the stove.
Here's my depression friendly take on Quincy's recipe :)
Ingredients: (Only 3!)
Milk (whole works best imo but any type of milk is okay for this)
Tumeric powder (If you don't have any on-hand these same-day options from Amazon are good: McCormick Turmeric Powder and Golden Milk)
Honey to taste (sweetener alternatives work but honey dissolves the best)
Optional: Chocolate flavoring (I personally like to add Rebbl Chocolate Protein but it is a bit of an acquired taste 😅)
Making It:
Get a microwave safe mug of your choosing! Size of the mug of course depends on how much milk you'd like. Fill the mug most of the way with your milk, if you are going to add the optional chocolate leave some room in the cup.
Add 1 teaspoon of turmeric. Turmeric can be a strong spice so always taste test before adding more!
Microwave for 30-45 seconds. My microwave is an absolute beast so it doesn't take long- you don't want to curdle the milk but a film on top is okay.
After microwaving you can add in your chocolate flavoring of choice and honey to taste! If it isn't warm enough pop it back in for another 30 seconds.
Woooo 🥳 you now have golden milk!

Dandelion Lotion Recipe
Here I am again, singing the praises of dandelions. As we already know by now, dandelions are high in Vitamin A, C, and B6, all of which provide excellent benefits for your skin!
The flowers contain high levels of beta carotene and lutein. Dandelion is high in magnesium, calcium, and potassium as well. All of these constituents provide support to the skin by helping with moisture retention and supporting skin function. 
Tumblr media
Ingredients:
5.6 ounces of distilled water
0.24 ounces of stearic acid
0.4 ounces emulsifying wax
1.76 ounces dandelion infused oil (here’s my post on making infused oils)
0.4 ounces preservative (Leucidal)
Optional: essential oil of choice (I always love using cinnamon)
Instructions:
Get a double boiler set up that will hold two small containers, like 8 ounce jelly jars. I use a wide pan, place a washcloth at the bottom, and fill with about an inch to two inches of water. This pan should hold two of the jars.
Measure out your water using a digital kitchen scale into one of the small jars
Measure out your oil, stearic acid, and emulsifying wax using the kitchen scale and place these into a separate small jar. 
Cover the water jar with a lid to prevent water from escaping through evaporation.
Place both jars into the pan, and heat gently on low until the oil mixture is completely melted together
Remove the jars from the pan, and allow to cool to about 110 degrees
Pour your water into the oil mixture, and add your preservative and essential oils (if using)
Stir these together quickly with a fork. As it cools, you’ll see the mixture emulsify, or come together and start turning into a cream
Pour your cream or lotion into small jars
If your lotion tries to separate, just mix it up good again. As it cools to room temperature, it should stop doing this.
