TARA SEEFELDT, a practicing Wiccan, teaches cooking classes while earning her Ph.D. in medieval history. She lives in Arizona.
JAMIE WOOD has formally practiced various forms of Wicca for more than ten years, and strongly identifies with the faery tradition. Jamie leads workshops, lectures, and retreats on manifesting the Divine and earth-based spirituality in everyday life. She is the author of THE TEEN SPELL BOOK and THE WICCA HERBAL and the coauthor of THE WICCA COOKBOOK. Jamie lives in California with her husband and two sons.
A witches' cookbook need not be simply a hodgepodge of recipes calling for "eye of newt." Wood has compiled The Wicca Cookbook to inform followers of the relationship of ancient paganism to eating. Those merely curious about this nature-based religion will also find good information here. Spell-casting and creation of sacred spaces precede a discussion of medieval cookery, source of many of these updated recipes. Nature forming the core of this religion, the authors organize recipes through seasons from Candlemas into the dark days of winter solstice. This nonorthodox book may offend some readers; others will enjoy its unique viewpoint. Mark Knoblauch
