We’ll use the gooiest, most decadent cheeses and the heaviest cream you can find.

How Do I Make Cannabutter?

If you’ve learned anything from me by now, it’s that I love to live by what I call my “Marijuana Mantra”;

” Dose Low, Dose Slow”

You will most definitely need to make cannabutter, unless you’ve already got a batch pre-made.

The first step, as always, is to decarb.

Decarbing or Decarboxylating ensures that the THC is properly released for the best, and ultimate experience.

Do I Need To Decarboxyle My Weed?

Yes, I am nodding yes vigorously! Please make sure you do.

Decarboxylation is essentially the conversion of THCa into THC or CBDa into CBD.

Without decarbing your weed, THCa and CBDa will not fit into the endocannabinoid receptor sites in your body.

This will totally inhibit the effects of cannabis that we’re after.

What Potatoes are Best For Scalloped Potatoes?

I love a Yellow Potato. For me, I find that the thick cheesy sauce clings to every last piece of potato when you use the yellow ones.

You can use any potato you have though – and bigger grocers will have their potatoes labelled – just stay away from the ones that are meant for a baked potato recipe.

They just don’t work as well, in my humble experience.
