oh, and the simmer setting on my stove is still making tons of tiny little bubbles come through the stew... looks awfully boil-y to me?

Your weed still has moisture in it so it is boiling out. Remember water vaporizes at only 212F and your stove is probably at around 250-275F on its lowest setting. So you are essentially frying your weed. It will stop bubbling after all the water has evaporated out of the oil.

Just used a Q of some real good stuff... gridded up fine. Had it going at 300*F for 45 - 1hour... in a crock pot and is now been going for another 2 or so on a stove with it simmering rapidly so I am guessing around the 200*F mark. BTw the butter Ive used probably around 200+gz of fat in it. So hopefully some high extraction happens.

Will bake and get some feedback soon...

Oooh, looks great! I look forward to making my first batch of this stuff! how much does it smell when you're simmering it? I assume it's incredibly obvious what it is, just by smell?

Im going to try and just use top quality vaped weed and see what I can get. It's about an ounce of material. I'm going to try and make some blondies.

I remember last harvest i hated my buds (bag genitics too fluffy) So i used about 2 and a half ounces to a single stick of butter(BUDS not trim mind you):mrgreen: I used the whole stick for a batch of blondies. Well needless to say they tasted soo strongly of herb i almost couldnt down em with out gagging with every bite. So i gave em to my friends who were in town for a visit and they stayed at my place. I had alot of blondies so i just handed em out free to whom ever wanted some. With in an hour of my friends eating them they were knocked the fuck out asleep on my couch and floor. Two of my friends were sitting up-right, passed out on the couch, the other on the floor with no pilow,no air mattress no nothing. ANd they stayed like that till i came down stairs the next morning!! Man those were the strongest fukin edibles iv ever seen!

So last night I made me some pumpkin WHOOPIE!! pies- yes that's right, cakey ganja pumpkin cookies with sweet ganja creamcheese filling. The filling called for a stick of butter (that stick had an oz of Jamaican Pearl in it) and the cake called for a cup of veggie oil (that cup had a half O in it)......

Needless to say, a WHOOPIE!! pie this morning for breakfast was a baaaad idea. I spent the day trying to talk my brain into convincing my ass to leave the couch. Evidently it worked, because now I'm at my desk, 10 feet away, and eating another half of a pie.

got about 2 oz of cab 2 or so months ago and made it all into butter using a recipe i got from "a childs garden of graSS, the official handbook for marijuana users". I then used it to make brownies. HAHA it was awsome. Didnt realise it took so long to kick in so i kept eating them tthinking "fuck they aint workin faw shit"... then i went to work and it was not far from the most ripped id ever been, it was like working with 10kg weights on my arms and leggs.
good times

I wanna make some cannashortbread. There's a lot of butter in shortbread. I'd make them in corny Christmas shapes like christmas trees and gingerbread men, and I'd eat them with my friends and it'd be the best christmas ever. lmfao

Maybe one day during Christmas break I'll whip up a batch of cannabutter first thing in the morning so hopefully the smell disperses by the time anyone comes home.

How badly does it smell? Does it smell like weed when the brownies/edibles are cooking?

I made some bud pasta not too long ago. Just boil a pot of noodles. After you drain the pasta and return it to the bowl add a bunch of cannabutter as well as basil, oregano, thyme, fresh minced garlic, and some fresh parmesan. I add some panchetta (sp?) as well if I have any. Stir all together in a big pot, invite some friends over and serve! I guarnatee it's the first time you'll see people licking the bottom of a spaghetti pot for more of the buttery remains.

Works like a charm and tastes amazing! I saw a recipe for a caesar salad that I wanna try next!

Forsaken, that's an awesome idea. There are not enough non-pastry, real food pot edibles. Pasta is like my favourite thing ever.

tdot it works awesome. the only problem with the recipe is that most of the butter ends up staying in the pasta bowl...wait a minute...next time im gonna make some cannabutter garlic bread to scoop up the left over pasta butter!!!

as far as other recipes look up a video called cooking with hans and hans. i found it awhile ago and its amazing! its all gourmet cooking with bud.

Totally agreed. I was actually talking about this today with my friend. Im really tired of just using canna butter for baked goods. Problem is i have a hard time thinking what else besides sweets would go well with canna butter?

Think of it this way...any recipe that calls for oil u can use weed butter/oil in. ceaser salad (the dressing), pasta, mashed potatoes with butter, steak with butter and mushrooms, pour some butter over some veggies...the clubs around here in so cal also sell weed lollipops. dont know how they make them but what im trying to say is that the possibilities are endless. grab a cook book and look for recipes that call for either oil or butter and improvise from there.

I said this in another post but watch cooking with hans and hans! Those guys are amazing!

Basically anything. Make some pasta with a basil cream sauce. The basil and cannabutter would make for an interesitng flavour :mrgreen:

is the butter like proper butter? could i fry an egg in a teaspoon of it or whatever and then get baked lol :D?

Well what I think he meant is that when you fry an egg you just put the butter in the pan so the egg doesn't stick, so you'll probably lose most of the THC content of the butter. So use it as an ingredient like with brownies, you put the butter in the batter, now just in the pan.
