In my experience if you warm your butter or oil with weed and add to the brownie mixture (5 minutes or so), you will get a good high. No prior steps necessary. Just be sure you heat the weed with the oil/butter (butter has a better taste) to activate TCH before adding and baking.
I have like a quart of cannabutter and I’m sick of baked goods. What’s another fast, cheap and effective way to cook with/use it? Thanks in advance.
Literally any recipe that requires fat. Use it to make a grilled cheese, or add to pasta with some Parmesan. Heck, put it in a box of Kraft Macaroni & Cheese.
Gummies. Basically just a couple boxes of jello mix and some cannabutter. Many recipes in r/treedibles. You can buy molds on Amazon, or just make squares.
Just put it on a sandwich, no cooking required. Toast the bread first, and zap it in the microwave for 20 seconds or so to melt your cheese and activate it (Toasting the bread keeps it from getting soggy in the microwave).
If you eat meat, get a steak, salt both sides heavily, let it come to room temp and pre-heat oven to 425. If you have cast iron, use it. Otherwise heaviest bottom pan you have and if it isn’t oven-proof, an oven-proof dish. Bring the pan up to high heat, put in about a tablespoon of oil, and then sear the steak on both sides. Finish in the oven, let rest for 10 minutes. Serve topped with cannabutter.
For real, put it on anything. Butter your bread, make Mac & chz, put it on a baked potato – literally anything. You can even put some in your tea or coffee.
