The Witch’s Cookbook by Fortuna Noir
Rating: ✩✩✩✩✩
This book had so many great aspects! As “food porn” (which is some of the appeal of cookbooks after all) it shines. The layout, design and photographs are amazing. The entire book captures the witchy-cottage core aesthetic perfectly. The food itself looks amazing and the recipes are well written. The tie ins of what the recipes contain magickally is pretty cool and would be a fun basis for getting started with kitchen witchery. My only note is that the recipes are beginner friendly to an extent that may disappoint seasoned cooks. While all the food looked yummy, many recipes seem like items that don’t need “recipes” at all. Of course, cooking needs to meet cooks where they are at and for someone who really didn't have any kitchen exposure (ignorance is often a function of environment not willfulness) this would be an extremely fun way to get out there and get working with basic techniques and ingredients. I am keeping this title in my “young adult survival kit” list since it would make a great tool for someone heading out to face the adulting terror of having to feed oneself all day without going mad with boredom or stress.
