THC, the main psychoactive chemical in marijuana (cannabis), is not readily digested by itself. Because THC is fat soluble it can be extracted into Ghee in order to make it more accessible to the body.
Ingredients for Ghee:
2lb unsalted butter
Making the Ghee:
1. Melt the butter in a pan at a low to medium temperature so that the butter is hot enough to boil.
2. A froth will form on the surface of the butter.
3. Remove the froth with a spoon.
4. Continue until no more froth appears.
5. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Ingredients for Cannabis Ghee:
1lb Ghee
1oz/28g of finely ground cannabis*
*The finer the powdered cannabis, the better this method will work.
Careful! Ghee will burn at a much lower temperature than butter. Water may be added to help prevent burning. It should not boil or burn. It should simmer with little or no bubbles.
Making the Cannabis Ghee:
1. The ghee is melted in a pan and allowed to simmer.
2. Add the cannabis slowely, and stir often.
3. Allow to simmer for an hour.
4. Strain with cheese cloth, and allow to cool.
5. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
