Discover why ghee might be the secret weapon missing from your cannabis kitchen. This golden, clarified butter not only offers a rich, nutty flavour that elevates any recipe, but its unique properties make it arguably the perfect medium for cannabis infusions.
Unlike regular butter with its 350°F smoke point, ghee can handle temperatures up to 485°F without burning—giving you greater cooking flexibility while protecting those precious cannabinoids. As a nearly 100% fat substance, ghee excels at binding with THC and other cannabinoids, potentially creating more potent infusions than other fats. For those with dietary restrictions, there’s more good news: the clarification process removes milk solids, making ghee suitable for many people with lactose sensitivities.
We walk through the complete process of creating cannabis-infused ghee at home, from decarboxylation to infusion techniques, including an intriguing discussion about whether traditional long infusion times are actually necessary. Could 30 minutes be just as effective as 2-3 hours? We explore this question while providing practical advice for storage, dosing, and creative ways to use your infused ghee—whether drizzled over popcorn, stirred into morning coffee, or substituted in your favourite recipes.
