Cannabis Recipes That Can’t Be Missed
Are you ready to surprise the love of your life with yummy desserts and cocktails? Don’t waste more time, let’s get to it right away!
Cannabis-infused butter or Cannabutter
Cannabutter is like your regular butter but with a little twist! It’s butter infused with cannabis to add a little kick to your recipes. Just imagine making chocolate chip cookies with cannabutter or spreading it on your toast in the morning—the possibilities are nearly endless.
To make it, you simply heat butter and cannabis together in a saucepan; this process is called decarboxylation, which activates the cannabinoids. It’s a fun and convenient way to consume cannabis, and the best part? You can control the amount of cannabis you add, making it as strong or mild as you like. So, why not bring out your creativity in the kitchen? Let’s get to the recipe real quick.
Product To Use
What You Need
- 1 cup or 8 ounces of unsalted butter
- ¼ – ½ ounce of cannabis flower (depending on the desired potency)
- 1 cup or 8 ounces of water
- Cannabis grinder
- Saucepan
- Cheesecloth
Quick Tips
- Use high-quality cannabis: The amount and quality of your cannabis flower will ultimately decide the potency of your cannabutter. So, be prepared to experience the sweet and earthy aroma that evokes happy and blissful feelings. We will use the Strawberry Milkshake flower by Jelly Cannabis Co. (26.57% THC).
- Use unsalted butter: It has a higher fat content than salted butter, allowing you to control salt quantity. It is also purer and does not have any added preservatives, which can affect the taste of your cannabutter. Also, avoid fat-free butter, as cannabutter relies on the fat in the butter to extract the psychoactive compounds from cannabis. Thus, using fat-free butter may not be effective.
What To Do
- Decarb your Strawberry Milkshake flower.
- Grind the cannabis flower into a fine powder using a grinder.
- Put all of it on a baking sheet and place it in a preheated 240 °F oven.
- Bake it for 30 minutes and keep sifting it every 5 minutes, so it doesn’t burn.
- Take it out of the oven once it changes from green to dark brownish green.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat and add water.
- Add the decarbed Strawberry Milkshake flower to the saucepan and cover the lid.
- Simmer the mixture for 2-3 hours while stirring occasionally.
- Strain the mixture with the help of cheesecloth to get rid of any plant matter.
- Allow the butter to cool and solidify.
Your cannabis-infused butter is now ready to use in anything you like. From baking to cooking, make the most out of the benefits of cannabis in a savory manner with these cannabis recipes.
