Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for a copy of this eARC in exchange for an honest review.

I enjoy everything Aurora Kane releases. Great addition for any kitchen witch or those who are interested in the craft.

I found this book enjoyable and educational. It is one I will be reading again. Although some sections could have used more details, it is a handy little reference book.

I received an advance reader copy of this book to read in exchange for an honest review via netgalley and the publishers.

The Kitchen Witch Handbook is an introductory guide to the practice of kitchen witchcraft within the home. I loved the illustrations and comforting nature of the book itself. The book focuses on teaching how to weave magical intentions into meals and dishes and uses mostly everyday ingredients that don't break the bank and are easily sourced. The book provides history and information perfect for newcomers and more advanced practicers and would make a stunning addition to any bookcase.

First off, the art in this book is absolutely stunning. Secondly, I love how integrated this book feels with what everyone does naturally while cooking. This book gives you the insight or ability to put more intentions into your cooking/baking. Part 1 of this book includes how to read tea leaves, how to use the moon phases in your kitchen, an overview on herbs and flowers, and what they can do for you. The second part of this book takes you through the Wheel of the Year. Each season has a brief overview of the different sabbats and how you can celebrate them, then it goes over the ingredients that hold more meaning and are in season for that time of year, and lastly it includes recipes for each season. The recipes are my favorite part of this book! I love cookbooks and what's better than getting recipes from fellow witches! This book is a staple for me in the kitchen and I recommend it to all witchy folk!

Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group – Wellfleet Press for this ARC! ♥

this is such a helpful and handy book to have around. I loved it so much I bought the hard copy. Great tips and really easy to follow. .I apparently loved it so much I accidently bought two copies! I sent one as a gift to a friend and we use them together!

So this witchy book was more a book of how to use kitchen ingredients to make you meals more magical. It shows you haw to make an alter in your kitchen and different spells you can make with normal items in you kitchen.
Not only does this walk you through how to do all these things, it helps you learn to create your own. Which is very important as you grow.

I enjoyed this book very much, While I wouldn't personally label myself as a witch, I strongly believe that intentions play a significant role in cooking. "The Kitchen Witch Handbook" not only satisfies my curiosity but also provides me with inspiration for infusing my cooking with magic and intention. As I embark on my culinary adventures with this book, I'm excited to explore the intersection of healing, intention, and delicious flavors.

Thank you to Netgalley for providing me with an e-ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Fabulous book to have around the house and to be able to refer back on it. I can’t honestly say I had a favourite part because I genuinely liked it all !!! The illustrations were beautiful and well fitted to the books style and theme.

I originally requested a galley of this book and received it, but life got in the way. I didn't get the time to read it before it came out. So I bought my own physical copy, and I do not regret it one bit! This book is so lovely. It's gorgeous and inviting with a sprinkle of magic. I'll be using it for years to come!

This was a wonderfully modern take on the magical traditions that have been passed down through the years. It's a hands on guide that is filled with recipes, spells, and rituals. It gives a new witch a place to start and opens them up to a whole new world. It shows an experienced witch insight into what they already know but in a new way. Definitely a lovely prelude into the world of a kitchen witch.

A super cool idea that I loved seeing! The Kitchen Witch Handbook was a gorgeous book that focused on wellness in the kitchen. I really enjoyed what it had to teach me.

Thank you to NetGalley and to the publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

4 stars
This was a great book full of practical information and guidance for beginners on their magical kitchen journey. I loved the way that the author made the recipes, tips and tricks fairly basic so that it was easy to understand and follow. The illustrations were awesome and I will be purchasing a physical copy to relook at them over and over. All round a fantastic book for beginners and skilled.

I received a free copy of The Kitchen Witch Handbook from Netgalley and Quarto Publishing Group – Wellfleet Press in exchange for an honest review.

As someone who was raised by a kitchen witch and would love to be one someday, I was eager to get into The Kitchen Witch Handbook and see if it was one to add to my shelves. It most definitely is! Following the sabbats and seasons, The Kitchen Witch Handbook moves through the year in herbs and plants, recipes, and rituals. It will most likely become one of my main reference guides for kitchen witching because of its complete and broad knowledge. Anyone looking for the same kind of guide will find a gem in Aurora Kane’s The Kitchen Witch Handbook.

This is one of those ARCs where I had to buy the book because it was just so full of helpful information that I had to have a hard copy on my shelf. To start with, the illustrations are gorgeous. There are charming pictures on just about every single page, and it made reading this book a joy.

It's chock full of useful and easy to understand information. I loved how Kane includes not just the witchy info about the sabbats, fruits, herbs, flowers, and vegetables for each season of the year, but also historical factoids that I can randomly spit out to look extra nerdy. In addition, she adds a range of ways to incorporate kitchen magic into our everyday lives, as well as celebrating the sabbats. Rather than making everything seem esoteric and mysterious, she provides a way to make celebrating each of the solstices and equinoxes attainable and doable amongst our busy lives.

This is one of those books that's great for beginners, and as a plus, it has some amazing sounding recipes that I can't wait to try out!

This was both beautiful and helpful. If you're looking to dip your toe into kitchen witchery, or just looking to expand your practice, you'll find this helpful. This was organized well and easy to read, but could easily be used simply as a reference book if you don't want to read it cover to cover. Highly recommend for all witches!

Firstly, I'd like to thank NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and absolutely loved the illustrations. I also like the way that it was set up. It was super simple to follow and comprehend, and information never felt overwhelming. I will say, it's information is very basic, but would be great for anyone just starting out or beginning to focus on the kitchen.

This is an incredibly whimsical book to add to anyone's kitchen. The book talks about various ingredients, colors, utensils and items to have on hand to bring peace and calmness to your home. It incorporates hospitality, care and emphasizes that the kitchen is the central place for gathering of warmth and love. It also had a section on different goddesses/maidens/witches from various ethnic folktales. (This Greek, Norse and Egyptican mythology) Readers who enjoyed "The Practical Magic series" by Alice Hoffman or "Garlic and the Vampire" by Bree Paulsen will enjoy this cozy book. I plan on ordering hard copies for both myself and friend whose birthday is in October. I also recommend this book for lovers of herbs, gardening, feminist pride and October spooky vibes. The illustrations are also delightful. Readers who also enjoy paging through cookbooks will also enjoy this book.

Delightful and quirky, with beautiful illustrations, the Kitchen Witch Handbook is a must for lovers of all things witchy. It is informative, delightful and practical, and would also make a lovely gift.

3 and a half stars, rounded up to 4.

Such a beautiful and unique book! You can find plenty of information on magic and witchcraft combined with a great collection of recipes. All wrapped up with beautiful illustrations into a stunning aesthetic it’s the perfect book for every kitchen witch.

This is the kitchen witch manual I've been looking for! Full of recipes, correspondences, blessings and ideas for incorporating kitchen magic across the seasons! Tips were practical and useful and the author included a brief history of many of the practices described. I'm so glad I was able to read this ahead of publication and I look forward to buying a hard copy once it's available.
