Canning

   I am sweating waiting for the canner to cool down so I can unload the jars of chili sauce. The canner will (eventually) cool down. No word yet on whether I will cool down. Ever. It is hot. The chili sauce is chock-full of cumin and garlic and chili pepper and cayenne powder and paprika and bell pepper and onion. All pureed in with many, so many tomatoes. It smells divine.

The magic of herbs and spices around the home

This is my first post shared to Tumblr, hoping the witchy community will give it a read and make me feel welcomed!

Using herbs and spices outside the kitchen. Greetings Ladles and Gentlespoons! Did you know that while herbs and spices are popular for flavoring and preserving food, they are also useful in other parts of the house? For this blog post, we will be focusing on using herbs and spices to clean the home. While some of the natural remedies I have found are a little outdated and struggle to compare…

#Herboristerytips : Where can you find herbs pt.2/2

Hi there, it's Ash ! In this page, i will continue my advices about finding herbs and incences. If you haven't read the first part yet, i invite you to, it's where i give all of my free tips ^^. Let's imagine know, that you specificly need a plant that you don't own and cannot find outside.

My first advice is to go looking in your local supermarket, in the spice aisle.

You can find a large panel of dried plants and spices, which is perfect for conservation, and the larger pots are quite often the better economic option that you can use in cooking and witchcraft. You can also check the infusion aisle : be careful, however, to choose infusions without artificial flavors, or blends with other plants that you don't need. Some aromats are selling fresh too, it could be useful on a very ponctual use, however, the price is higher compare to the dry ones. If you cannot find some of the plants you need, you can try specialized supermarket that sells different kind of spices than the regular ones, like asian or middle east supermarkets. You can also find some plants at some drugstore/pharmacy, but they are a little more expensive.

Another option, if you have some outdoor space, is to go to a plantshop.

I recomand you to buy the plants of the herbs you use all the time. You could have an illimited acces to it, for a quite cheap price if you think about it :you will have to possibility to dry them for autumn and winter, and use them fresh during spring and summer. But, there is an implicit requirement : you have to keep your plant alive : if you are not a great plant-parent, this solution might not be for you, however, we can only be learning if we try...

We enters here into the more expensive stuff ; herboristery and witchcraft oriented shop.

Don't get me wrong, I love those kind of shop. But, their products are way more expensive, and when you use a lot of plants in your daily pratice, you cannot fill your apothicary at those places all the time. You will however find a almost exhaustive good quality herbs and incences that you cannot find elsewhere. You can also get some great advices, that will help you to pick the most appropriate herb for your projet.

Well, dearest reader, this is where my list is ending. For the person who needs to know : yes, i volontarely did'nt include any kind of websites in this checklist. The reason why ? I don't use that kind of approvisionement. But, if you do, and that your happy with the quality of your herbs; please, share the name below ^^ Until next time, take care,

Ash
