Clearly he was missing the ham.

[–] Draegur@lemm.ee 30 points 2 weeks ago

indeed, the ham is the most important component in green eggs and ham

Shoulda decarbed in butter first

[–] felixwhynot@lemmy.world 41 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Cannabutter is the right answer here

[–] Godort@lemm.ee 30 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (5 children)

That would solve the problem about not getting high, but cannabutter still tastes pretty bad. That's why it's usually hidden in baked goods with stronger flavors like chocolate.

[–] Anivia@feddit.org 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Not really, if you do it properly there is almost 0 taste difference.

After infusing the butter and filtering it through a cheesecloth or coffee filter you have to put it in a pot of boiling water, use at least 5 times more water than cannabutter. Stir it thoroughly for a few minutes, then let it first cool down to room temperature and then put it in the fridge. Since THC is only soluble in fat but not water it will stay inside the butter, but much of the plant material like chlorophyll is water soluble and will get dissolved in the water during this process. In the fridge the butter will solidify on top of the water and you can remove it from the water to have your clarified butter that tastes almost like regular butter

Canna-ghee. Glee, if you will.

Steak is also excellent at hiding the flavour.

[–] webghost0101@sopuli.xyz 9 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Do you use the butter in the pan to cook the meat? I would think that either wastes the product or the steak.

[–] muntedcrocodile@lemm.ee 6 points 2 weeks ago

Nar melt some and poor it over the steak. It absorbs it as it rests.

[–] SeekPie@lemm.ee 3 points 2 weeks ago

It's usually used when searing the steak. You add it near the end of the cooking as to not burn the butter. You use it to baste the steak (shovel the melted butter/oil over it to cook it more evenly on both sides).

[–] RamblingPanda@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Mine is delicious, but it's the only one I've ever tasted. Maybe I'm weird, maybe I'm some kind of culinary prodigy.

You don't need to decarb in anything, just heat the bud up and you can eat it. The butter is for extraction.

[–] deegeese@sopuli.xyz 5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Heating up is for decarboxylization.

Yeah exactly. Sometimes I decarb buds and just throw it in pill capsules, no extraction necessary.

[–] BrazenSigilos@ttrpg.network 60 points 2 weeks ago
[–] TimewornTraveler@lemm.ee 37 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

it needs to be heated to a certain degree to activate the THC. and i think it's supposed to go into a lipid

[–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 23 points 2 weeks ago (6 children)

It doesn't need to go into a lipid. You can just put like an eighth of weed into some tinfoil in the oven, bake it and then throw it into a coffee grinder and stir it into chocolate.

Chocolate will get you totally toasted, but your shit will smell like weed the next day.

[–] zalgotext@sh.itjust.works 30 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It doesn't need to go into a lipid

Gives instructions for putting it in a lipid

[–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Or pour it on your tongue and wash it down with water, up to you. You don't need anything else, but it's going to be hard to choke down without mixing it in something.

[–] zalgotext@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
  1. I just thought it was funny that you claimed that you don't need to mix weed with fat, then immediately suggested a recipe mixing weed with fat

  2. Trying to eat weed without mixing it with a fat would be not only unpleasant flavor-wise, it would be a huge waste of weed. The compounds in weed that get you high are much more bioavailable when they're in the presence of fats. So, loosely speaking, you kinda do need to mix it with fat if you're gonna eat it, unless you're okay with large amounts of wasted weed and money

[–] LucasWaffyWaf@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

On that note, how the stink do THC drinks work then?

[–] kieron115@startrek.website 3 points 2 weeks ago

I can't speak for other countries, the EU banned it a while ago, but up until very recently a lot of citrus drinks over here in the U.S. used a chemical called Brominated Vegetable Oil as a stabilizer/emulsifier I think? So at least in the U.S. there can be fats in some sodas. Maybe enough for the THC?

[–] NickwithaC@lemmy.world 22 points 2 weeks ago

The overuse of the word shit made me take a second to realise you meant actual shit and you weren't saying that your oven and house in general will somehow start smelling more weed-like after a 24 hour period post bake.

[–] KnowledgeableNip@sh.itjust.works 12 points 2 weeks ago (6 children)

Doesn't it just bind to the fat in the chocolate?

How bad will the house smell after heating the weed in an oven?

On a scale of Mr Roger’s to Snoop Dogg.

If you're particularly lazy and want to check how a plant is doing you can even just microwave to activate it. put it in a glass cup with a damp paper towl under it, cover with a second damp paper towl, cover in plastic wrap except a small gap like you're making a microwave dinner. Cook for a minute at a time on 20-30% power and let the steam release between cooks. Do that 2-3 times then remove nug from container and let it sit a few minutes on a plate or something.

Your correct, that's why if you wanna make weed food, you just make weed butter and use it where you want.

fry egg in butter

sear steak in butter

butter in coffee

blt w/ bacon cooked in butter, or buttered toast as bread, or both

you could use other lipids like oils as well, or w/e vegan lipid as to not use an animal product, but its super easy to use butter anywhere

endless options

I've never had any success making edibles out of flower. It always comes out too weak, even if I follow the decarb instructions perfectly.

It's much easier to just mix some distillate into whatever you want to turn into an edible. No cooking needed, just mix in and enjoy. I like to mix in some distillate with Everclear and then water it down with vodka to make it drinkable. Gets you stupid stoned stupid quick.

[–] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 31 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Just go to your local dispensary and spend $10 for a nice piece of candy.

The way a civilized city should have it.

[–] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 days ago

Not everyone is free

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

$20 to get my wife and I high with nice breath (mints) every weekend for a few months. Mind you I do love my dry herb vape for fine tuning my high but yeah it's so affordable

[–] Manifish_Destiny@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Hell yeah. We've got what are basically cannabis altoids

I thought he was going to feed the herb to the chickens and then gather their thc-infused eggs.

That's how McDonald's get more people in again. THC infused Egg McMuffin.

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Now I want McDonald's for breakfast.

Thanks. I don't have one available on my drive to work so I'm going to be thinking about this all day now.

I hope you're happy.

[–] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (4 children)

For a short shining moment in 2020, McDonald's was serving breakfast all day. Never forget what covid took from us

Just do this 🤙

Gummies

	1.	Place 1 cup cannabis in a ball jar with lid finger tight
	2.	Add 2 cups water to pressure cooker
	3.	Place interface between glass jar and metal of pressure cooker.
	4.	Use “Manual” button and set to high pressure for 40 minutes
	5.	Let pressure naturally release
	6.	Add 1 cup of fat (coconut oil, butter, avocado oil etc) to jar with cannabis
	7.	Place back in pressure cooker as before- Manual, high, 40 mins
	8.	Let pressure naturally release
	9.	Strain out cannabis. I have used various methods but I believe using a French press (for coffee) is the simplest and cleanest

This fat can now be consumed and will get you high

Gummies recipe 
I use refined coconut oil for the extraction for this recipe

In a small pot, combine
-1/2 cup cold water
-2 tablespoons of cannabis infused coconut oil
-6 tablespoons regular coconut oil 
-1/4 teaspoon soy lecithin powder (this is necessary as it allows oil and water to mix; also helps absorption of THC into the body. 
Heat on LOW heat. Mixture can not boil
Slowly add:
-3oz (small) pack of jell-o
-3 envelopes of Knox gelatin
Mix/stir by hand for 10 minutes

Pour into mold or nonstick pan and let set in freezer for 20-30 mins 

Remove from mold, consume, and blast off.

He does not like them, Sam-I-Am

I just make warm chocolate milk, let the weed stay in there for a bit while heating up, then strain and enjoy. I quite like the grassy undertone in the milk.

[–] filcuk@lemmy.zip 16 points 2 weeks ago

Yes my friend made this once and it was the most disgusting thing ever.
Also so strong we'd have a shot and get knocked out.
Could those two be related? We'll never know.

[–] ObsidianZed@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago

When he said nug, I thought for sure he was going to make 'egg nug'.

[–] Pacattack57@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Theoretically could you use thc butter or would the heat denature it?

[–] Raiderkev@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Absolutely. My roommate used to do it all the time in college. Called it green eggs.

[–] Comment105@lemm.ee 7 points 2 weeks ago

I quite like green eggs and ham, that funky junk, it helps me jam
