When using marijuana/thc for medicinal purposes its not always viable to smoke it depending on your illness.

For this purpose, i would like to share an old method that my wife has discovered form reading about the beat generation poets and the antics they got up to in tangier in the late 50's.

For reference purposes this comes directly from the book,
"Ginsberg a biography." by Barry Miles.



William Burroughs spoke of a ""Hash Candy" or "Majoun" in this book and what they did was make hashish candy by using

* finely chopped kiff
*caraway seeds
*ground nutmeg
*cinnamon
*and honey

Heat until it becomes sticky and use one tablespoon in which he stated would "see him through the night", what ever that means

Furthermore,

When Allen and his partner visited Bill in Tangier in the late 50's, it was recorded that they rolled that "Majoun" into balls, chewing it for hours and washing it down with tea, and after an hour or so it produced a slow strong marijuana high that hey likened it to peyote.

Thanks for the recipe Leeroy. Burroughs certainly knew his way around drugs of all sorts. What a character.

Yours,

****************************** **********************Once a certain sufi of Basra began to consume hashish regularly; his shaykh realized this meant he had reached the ultimate degree of perfection and no longer stood in need of guidance. This, says the Turkish sufi poet Fuzuli, "proves that hashish is the perfect being, sought after by mankind with great eagerness. It may not be the perfect being for everybody, but it most certainly is for the seeker of mystical experience."

Majoun
According to Peter Lamborn Wilson, the Heddawiyya Sufi order of Morocco is entirely devoted to the ritual, meditational and magical uses of cannabis. Majoun is, perhaps, the most legendary of all psychoactive confections — a potent blend of dried fruits, nuts, spices, honey and cannabis.

Total time
4+ hours

1/4 oz. tops cannabis sativa, crumbled, stems and seeds removed
1 cup chopped dates
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup ground walnuts
1 tsp. Ground nutmeg

1 tsp. anise seed
1 tsp. dried ginger
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup water (more if needed)
2 tbsp. melted butter or ghee

In a dry skillet, toast the marijuana over very low heat until it begins to release an aroma. Combine it with the dried fruit, walnuts, spices, honey and water, and cook until the ingredients are soft. Remove to a heavy bowl and mash this pulp until the ingredients are well blended; or put into a food processor and blend, using several short pulses.

Add the butter and stir until well blended. Spoon into a jar and store in the refrigerator. Serve on crackers, eat by the fingerful, or use as a filling for mamoul.

I would still use hash instead of any kind of leaf matter though, just to get a more palatable taste. Strong plant material taste can be a little strong ive found.

from a chef's point of view this recipe has a couple faults, one being that toasting bud dry in a pan will degrade/destroy a bit of the thc, reaching the smoke/vaporization point. you also want more butter for that much bud, the fat is how we extract the thc for munching. im all for eating it though, and something thats easy and very tasty is to use a box of brownie mix, of your choice, take double the oil it calls for and put it in a bakeable dish. add powdered bud (1/8th-1/4), mix and bake at 225 for 20 minutes. then use the oil to make the brownies, bake, and get ready, hehe.

Hiya natty

Newb here, getting ready for my first grow, but I know something about olive oil. Olive oil tends to burn pretty easily at lower temperatures than other oils and regular butter, don't know how easy it would be to cook canna in it without burning the oil. If you want a healthy oil, you could always use some palm oil ( not palm kernal oil ) - it's what Paul Newman uses in his light popcorn. Only 50% saturated, healthy stuff and can take a bit of heat...

Happy cookin girl! -MGJ

I'm going to make your day NattynattyGirl. In the recipe section of our AAMC website you'll find methods of making cannabutter, elixer, tincture, etc. You'll also find a whole bunch of tested recipes. I particularly recommend "Green Garlic Toasted". If you like garlic bread this version will knock you out!

Just a quick note on Green Garlic Toasted.... We made fresh cannabutter up in Oregon from small buds and high grade trim from some Big Sur Holy Weed. Then we pulled some fresh garlic from my buddy's garden and picked up some great sourdough in Eugene.

So, I spread the cannabutter liberally on the bread, squeezed fresh garlic all over the butter then topped with graded Romano originoso cheese from Tuscany. We broiled the toast until lightly brown.

My buddy, a fellow patient who lives outside of Eugene had a large piece of toast with our dinner. This guy has a big tolerance. About 8 PM (one hour after dinner) we were utterly fried and had to go to bed. Later we computed we'd each consumed the equivalent of about 3-4 grams of cannabinoids. I slept with the rat terrier under the covers and you could have dropped a bomb I wouldn't of woke up.

The point is: Green Garlic Toasted is the most potent of all of those recipes. Use good cheese and fresh garlic and it's divine.

Yours,
Dr. Jay

good suggestions, what i like to do is just get a box o brownie mix, double the oil and bake the bud and oil first at 250 for half an hour or so, then mix brownies as normal. tastes great, ad you can pick whatever kind you want. for a batch id say use 1/8th to 1/4 of kindbuds. hope yall like.
