  2 0 There is a good book on this topic, "Cooking with Cannabis". Heating is required to activate the desirable properties. However if heated too long or at too high a temperature, the THC will degrade into CBD/CBN and the CBD/CBN will degrade into useless compounds. The best method is cold extraction with | vegetable oil (or grapeseed oil). Simply fill a gallon jug with dried, crumbled leaves and buds. Then pour in vegetable oil to the top. Shake several times over the next 24 hours. The vegetable oil will dissolve the good parts, leaving the fiber behind. Then pour the oil through a coffee strainer. This may take several hours. Wrap in pourous cloth and squeeze out residual oil into the coffee filter. You have separated the oil from the fiber. Pour the oil into a centrifuge. Use a vegetable baster to extract the oil from the center. This oil needs to be heated to be activated. If a cookie or brownie recipe calls for butter or shortening, use this oil. Cook briefly at low temperature.

  0 0 I've never felt weed-smelling green butter made for anything I would consider a "great" dinner recipe. You aren't putting weed in to impress the food critics, you're doing it to get high. Stick to desserts or appetizers (brownies and garlic bread are common green butter recipients for a reason, methinks).

  0 0 Since THC is fat-activated, anything you can put butter in is fair game. Mushrooms come to mind. French-style cooking also lends itself well. Savory crepes or quiche.

  0 0 I used to like to put some weed butter on garlic bread with an Italian dinner. You can also use a little in the spaghetti sauce.
