Witch Hat Atelier Kitchen 1 (Witch Hat Atelier Kitchen, #1)

by Hiromi Sato

Kamome Shirahama (Creator)

Witch Hat Atelier is back in this culinary spinoff that lets readers try their hand at recreating a variety of sumptuous recipes. This time, the magic is in the kitchen as Qifrey and the gang whip up everything from sizzling stews to crackling croquettes. Ideal for both existing fans of the main series and newcomers looking for an easily "disgestible" introduction to the world of Witch Hat.

Evening falls on Qifrey’s atelier, and Coco and her fellow witches-in-training take to their beds. In the quiet of midnight, Qifrey and Olruggio are finally free to pursue their culinary experiments. The kitchen comes alive as they whip up puddings, stews, parfaits, and jellies, and when the sun rises, Coco and the gang are there to savor every bite!

Includes a variety of real sweet and savory recipes with step-by-step instructions.

Summary:

It makes sense that Qifrey would be quite busy in the kitchen. After all, he has a hoard of young apprentices to keep fed! That task is often easier said than done, given the variety of tastes and palettes he must work with on any given day.

Thankfully, the girls are always grateful for his efforts. So together, Qifrey and Olruffio will take advantage of the quiet nights to pursue their own adventures – of a culinary nature.

Review:

Witch Hat Atelier Kitchen #1 is the first in a new (ish) spin-off series based on the beloved Witch Hat Atelier series. It's perfect for anybody who loves a more slice-of-life story, especially as it blends in more foodie elements.

Witch Hat Atelier always leaves us hanging (on bated breath or a cliffhanger); Witch Hat Atelier Kitchen #1 is a casual and calming delight. Yet it fits perfectly within the world, portraying the characters perfectly as they play around in the kitchen.

I love how each chapter includes a recipe (how realistic those recipes are, I can't say). It's a cute touch to help finish off each story.

Highlights:
Magic Academy
Slice-of-life
Magical Cooking
