Step into the hearth of magic as kitchen witch Trish Telesco reveals how to transform your cooking from mundane to mystical. With over 40 years of magical practice and more than 50 published books, Telesco brings authentic wisdom to the sacred art of kitchen witchery.

The magic begins at the threshold—wiping your feet before entering the kitchen isn't just about cleanliness but about leaving negativity at the door. Your kitchen becomes a temple where wooden spoons become wands and soup pots transform into cauldrons. No need for elaborate tools or precise measurements; kitchen witchery thrives on intuition, authenticity, and mindful presence.

Discover the layers of magic in Telesco's famous Five Onion Soup, where five different onions prepared five different ways create a symphony of texture, flavor, and intention. Learn how to cook with edible flowers, arrange food according to elemental correspondences, and align your meals with astrological energies. These practices engage all five senses, creating what Telesco describes as a "moving meditation" that deepens the magical potency of your food.

Kitchen witchery offers profound healing possibilities, too. For those navigating depression, chronic pain, or life transitions, mindful cooking provides therapeutic benefits that nourish both body and spirit. As Telesco shares from her own journey through health challenges, cooking becomes a way to process emotion and find joy in simple creation.

The most powerful insight? Stop doing magic and start being magic. By bringing your authentic self into everyday cooking practices, you embody magical consciousness rather than merely performing rituals. This accessible approach makes kitchen witchery available to everyone, regardless of experience or resources. All you need is intention, curiosity, and a playful spirit to transform your kitchen into a place where delicious magic happens every day.

Trish Telesco has been a practicing Kitchen Witch for 40 years, and written numerous books on related subjects. Her most recent book is Cooking with the Kitchen Witch, a celebration of the first magical cookbook ever, Kitchen Witch's Cookbook. She lives in WNY with her cats, who run the house, and dogs who don't know it.
