Crispy Orange Chicken (or Tofu)

Mar 16, 2026

I eat a lot, and I mean A LOT of Italian food. So having some quick easy recipes that are inspired by Asian flavors really help to not get board with the same old thing. This recipes can be made with Chicken or Tofu. Made spicey with Hot Pepper infused olive oil, or you can turn it sweeter with a little bit of our spring seasonal Lavender a L’ orange olive oil. Either way, I’m sure you are going to enjoy this dish!

20 Minute Bolognese

There is nothing quite like a big bowl of pasta with bolognese (meat) sauce...easy, delicious and the quintessential comfort food for this kitchen witch.

Roasted Butternut & Sage Pasta

This pasta has all the nutty, sweet, savory flavors of fall. The secret is adding a bit of pasta water while tossing in the rest of the ingredients. It adds a silky texture without using butter or cream. I could eat this every day of the week. Try topping it with toasted walnuts for added…

Dec 10, 2024

Beets are polarizing. You either love them or hate them. I’m in the “Learning to Love them” camp. Until i had them properly roasted I thought they were gross. Here we roast the beets until tender and toss them in a salad of hearty winter greens, goat cheese, and a Dijon vinaigrette. The perfect winter…

What Our Customers Say

Delicious!!! Cucina Aurora oils are the best tasting oils out there!  Every time, I use them with guests, they always ask about flavors. I continued to try different brands of flavored oils over the past 9 years, but none of them compare to Cucina Aurora.  They are fantastic on vegetables, breads, and salads.  You can really taste a smooth flavor of each flavor.  I highly recommend you try any of the oils!  You won’t be disappointed

I just received the Winter Brew coffee and Rosemary olive oil and love them so much! I think the winter brew just might be my new favorite coffee. I can’t wait to try the other seasons!

I genuinely love every product this company makes. I’ve been blessed with meeting members of the team in person and got nothing but good vibes and have been lucky to find local establishments in which to purchase their oils and coffee. You can’t go wrong with buying food items from a kitchen witch!

I was fortunate to stop at the Kitchen Witchery booth at Mohegan Sun New England Christmas Festival. I purchased the Magical Marinara and that is what it is “magical” I cooked my meatballs in the sauce. The flavor was delicious with the garlic infused olive oil and a slight kick of red pepper we thoroughly enjoyed it! I will definitely be purchasing it again and will be trying the infused olive oils!

I have purchased many products from Cucina Aurora Kitchen Witchery over the years. Dip mix, risotto, cookbooks and of course oils! What keeps me coming back is the fact that everything is just plain good. I love to cook and the oils in particular make it simple to add a delicious burst of flavor. I tell everyone about these products and will keep spreading the word!

I have a huge food allergy and have to avoid many things. The olive oil I buy from Cucina Aurora is delicious! I know exactly what is in it, I cook with it, and use it on salads. What a twist to add to a salad and it is amazing on shrimp! Thank you Dawn for adding yummy flavor to my very limited menu!
