Assuming you would like a blog post discussing how to make cannabutter or cannabis-infused cooking oil, here is your requested blog post.
Cannabis edibles are food products that have been infused with marijuana. Many people prefer edibles over other methods of consuming marijuana because they offer a more discreet way to get high, and the effects tend to last longer than when smoking or using a cannabis vaporizer. Plus, making your own edibles at home allows you to control both the potency and the flavor of your finished product.
The first step in making cannabutter or cannabis-infused cooking oil is to decarboxylate your weed. This process will activate the THC in your weed so that it will be psychoactive when ingested. To decarboxylate weed, spread ground cannabis evenly on an oven-safe tray and bake at 240°F for 40 minutes. Let the tray cool before handling.
Next, you’ll need to infuse your butter or cooking oil with the THC-rich decarboxylated weed. There are several ways to do this, but the simplest method is to simmer chopped butter or cooking oil along with water and ground weed in a saucepan for 2-3 hours on low heat. Keep an eye on the mixture while it simmers, stirring occasionally and making sure that it doesn’t boil (this will reduce the potency of your final product).
Once your butter or oil has been infused with THC, strain it through a cheesecloth or coffee filter into a clean container. Be sure to squeeze all of the liquid out of the cheesecloth so that none of those precious cannabinoids go to waste! Your cannabutter or cannabis-infused oil is now ready to use in any recipe that calls for regular butter or oil. Just keep in mind that one tablespoon of this stuff packs a serious punch, so start small!
