Making
"Bud Butter"
Melt a pound of butter in a pan. Mix 60-70 (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."]
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 haschish butter. You can fry more leaves
in the same butter if 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
haschish or haschish 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 haschisch or hashish oil is dissolved in the
butter. You can put as much hashish (or haschisch
oil) into it as you want. Another plus is that
there are no remaining leaves with THC to worry
about.
