Recipes

Cooking with cannabis is a fat substitution — you swap butter for cannabutter and the rest is ordinary cooking. So every recipe here stores the fat it needs and the dose it targets, and works out the split once it knows how strong your oil is.

BreakfastStandard

Buttermilk pancakes

Three of the sources we surveyed carry a pancake recipe and none of them mention the problem: a griddle runs far hotter than an infusion survives. The butter goes on top, not in the pan.

MainStandard

Chicken parmesan

A full dinner rather than a dessert. The chicken is fried and baked at temperatures no infusion survives, so the dose rides in the sauce that goes on top.

BreakfastStandard

Cinnamon french toast

Thick-cut bread in a cinnamon custard, with the infused butter worked into a topping rather than cooked into the pan. The skillet gets plain butter; the dose goes on afterward.

MainStandard

Garlic herb butter pasta

A ten-minute emulsified butter sauce built in the pan with pasta water. Dinner that happens to be dosed, rather than a dessert pretending to be dinner.

MainStandard

Herb butter salmon

Roasted salmon finished with a compound butter that melts over the top. The butter never sees the oven, which makes this one of the most potency-efficient ways to dose a dinner.

SauceStandard

Marinara sauce

A long-simmered tomato sauce with the oil stirred in at the very end. Freeze it in portions and it doses pasta, eggs or pizza for a month.

MainStandard

Shakshuka

Eggs poached in a spiced tomato sauce. The infused oil is stirred in off the heat at the end rather than used to build the sofrito, which is the difference between keeping your dose and simmering it away.

SideLow

Sweet potato fries

Roasted hot in plain oil, tossed in infused oil after. Roasting temperature is about twice what an infusion tolerates, so the dose goes on at the end.
