Cooking with Cannabis

Cooking with cannabis can be a fun and enjoyable way to consume marijuana, but it is important to take some precautions to ensure that the finished product is safe and enjoyable to eat.
Here are a few tips for cooking with cannabis:

1. Decarboxylate the cannabis: Cannabis must be decarboxylated (heated) in order to activate the THC and other cannabinoids. To decarboxylate cannabis, preheat your oven to 245°F (118°C) and place the ground cannabis on a baking sheet. Bake for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes.
2. Infuse the cannabis into a fat: THC is fat-soluble, so it must be infused into a fat, such as butter or oil, in order to be effectively absorbed by the body. To make cannabutter or cannaoil, melt the fat in a saucepan over low heat and add the decarboxylated cannabis. Simmer the mixture for 2-3 hours, stirring occasionally.
3. Use low heat: THC and other cannabinoids can be damaged by high heat, so it is important to use low heat when cooking with cannabis. This will help to preserve the potency of the THC and other cannabinoids.
4. Start with a low dose: Cannabis edibles can be much more potent than smoked or vaporized cannabis, so it is important to start with a low dose and to carefully monitor your response to the edibles to determine the right dose for your needs.
5. Label and store your edibles safely: If you are making edibles for others, it is important to label them clearly to indicate that they contain cannabis. It is also important to store edibles out of reach of children and pets.
