Compassion Club Cannabutter
( Makes about 1 1/2 lbs. of butter. )
1.Fill a 6- to 8-litre pot 1/3 full with densely packed herb leaf of choice. Fill remainder of pot with cool water and bring the whole to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 45 minutes.
2. Strain out and discard water but return leaf to pot. Replenish with clean water.
3. Bring pot to boil. Add 2 lbs. of butter and mix. Lower heat and let simmer for 2-3 hours, stirring occasionally ( add water if necessary. )
4. Strain out liquid into bowl using a fine strainer ( or cheesecloth ). Squeeze butter out of remaining leaf. Discard strained leaf.
5. Put liquid into refrigerator over night. Butter will separate from water and form a hard crust on surface of liquid.
6. Lift out butter crust and put in large mixing bowl. Discard liquid. Cream and fold butter using a large metal or wooden spoon.
7. Butter is ready to use as-is. Will keep in freezer up to three months.
When baking with cannabutter, select recipes that need short cooking times on a low heat ( like cookies ), or else cannabinoids will break down while cooking.
Compassion Club Cannaoil ( As a vegan option )
1. Heat one cup of olive oil to just below simmering ( don't let it boil )
2. Add an equal measure of herb leaf of choice
3. Stir and let the herb heat up for 30 minutes.
4. Strain through cheese cloth, let oil cool down. Product is ready to use. Store in fridge.
5. For stronger product, heat the oil as described above, then transfer oil and herb to heated crock pot and keep cooking on low heat overnight or up to two days, then strain it off and discard leaf.
