Pot Recipes

Bud Butter (the key ingredient)

Bud Butter: Almost every recipe in cooking something involves the use of butter, in some amount. Here we will show you how to make the Bud Butter that can be used just as any normal “butter” would be used in any other cooking situation. So if you find another recipe that requires butter, you can just make it a marijuana recipe by using our bud butter recipe in its place. You must follow the instructions very carefully or the effects of the THC will be negated by over- or under- cooking.

How Much Marijuana to use?

General Instructions:

Melt a pound of butter in a pan. Mix 2-5 (or more grams of thoroughly sifted pot in it. Let it boil carefully a couple of minutes until the butter has gotten a green color from the grass. Then squeeze the butter through a fine strainer. While you use the strain, keep the leaves away in a corner of the pan by using a spoon. Squeeze hard to get out as much of the butter as possible.

The cooking time has varied from “a couple of minutes,” as above, to 10-15 minutes from other baked epicurian masters. 10 minutes works fine for my “friends.” had the best luck with a double boiler, cooked it at a medium temp for about half an hour. He used about a 1 oz of dried leaves, including sunleaves, with 2 sticks of butter (gotta be real butter). He then strained it in a small kitchen strainer and refridgerated it until it was firm. There will be a sediment on the bottom of the jar, seems to be bits of leaf and crystals of THC. He just stirred it up before he used it to cook with. If you eat the butter on crackers, be aware that it tastes AWFUL, but if you cook with it the flavor does not come through. He cooked a batch of brownies (right off the unsweetened chocolate box) with this “cannabutter”, couldn’t taste it at all and was pretty well wasted on 2 small brownies. (it made 24 of em)

To warm up the pan a little will make the butter flow easier. Also strain the butter that is gathered in the deeper parts of the pan. If you don’t want any remaining leaves in the butter, you can strain it through some muslin. A problem concerning this is that you will loose some butter in the muslin. Don’t throw the leaves, they still may* contain viable THC. The leaves can be cooked in milk or vodka and become a tasty and effective drink. Hot milk or vodka might also be poured through the muslin, thereby saving some of the hashish butter. You can fry more leaves in the same butter in you want to increase its strength.

General “word on the street” is that the bud left over after the extraction is worthless and should be thrown away… I left the comment in the recipe because boiling the used pot in milk really* does taste good. I have not experienced consuming the beverage at what might be called a “baseline,” so I do not know if it has psychoactive qualities.

A simpler and stronger version of the cannabis butter (or ghee)… by mixing melted butter with hashish or hashish oil instead of pot. It is not necessary to fry this as long as in the case with the pot. Just warm it up and mix it until the hashish or hashish oil is dissolved in the butter. You can put as much hashish (or hashish oil) into it as you want. Another plus is that there are no remaining leaves with THC to worry about.

I would be sure to cook the hash with the butter long enough that any alcohol or chemicals that were used in processing the hash were cooked off, especially if using hash oil. Cook it until any alcohol or chemical smell is entirely gone.

    If you are using Mid grade for the butter what would be a significant amount to mix in with butter and mix with brownies exactly in amount? I am trying to feast before I take a flight from Fl alone to Oregon. Please reply soon. One Love<3
