If your new to cooking with Marijuana, Cannabutter is the best place to start. Basically its butter infused with THC. This easy and basic recipe gives you perfect Cannabutter every time. Once you know how to make Cannabutter you can use it on its own or add it to just about any recipe that uses butter. ( Make sure you consider the “Green” taste that most edibles get from THC infused goods)

Ingredients

  • 1/2 ounce of ground Marijuana
  • 1Lbs of salted butter
  • Cheese Cloth (available at most grocery stores in the cookware section)
  • A small pot
  • A small glass dish
  • Water

Directions

  • Fill the pot with 1-2 inches of water and put the stove on a medium heat
    add the butter and let it simmer until the butter is melted.
    (If you haven’t ground your MJ yet do that now)

  • Add the MJ to the melted butter and water, mix well and turn the heat down to low let simmer for 3 hours stirring frequently

Once the mixture is done cooking turn off the hear and let cool for about 10 minutes

  • Once cool, pour the mixture through the cloth into the glass dish. After you pour the liquid through the cheese cloth wring out all of the extra liquid that might be left in the cloth.

  • Once all of the liquid is strained, cover the glass dish and refrigerate for 12 hours.

At this point all of the water will be at the bottom and the cannabutter will be in a hard layer on the top.

  • Drain all of the water from the bottom and keep the top layer as the butter.

 

*You can stop with the last step or do as I did and blend it to make a whipped butter. (It makes it easier to spread.)
