Monica Lo wrote The Weed Gummies Cookbook (Ulysses Press 2022)and it's an interesting and very thoughtful book. She came to it after suffering a herniated disc after an intesive booiktcamp work out. Herf reind gave her cannabis gummies/ she wanted to create her own and luckily she had a sous vide - after being part of a sous vide start up - infuse the cannibis. A sous vide cooks food in a sealed bag in hot water. The temperature is very precise for exact cooking. This makes for bnone of that telltale cannibis aroma wafting around the house or neighborhood. She also delves into the history of using the pkant for medicinal purposes with its' use going back to the second Century in China and recording in PenTs'ao a medical book of the time. Ms. Lo also incudes a page on ethics along with what ingredients to use to create the sweets. she also includes all important warning labels to download too. There are reminders about how much cannabis and hemp or THC to use. she recommneds a low dose although there is a page on dosages,Ms. Lo also includes a page on infusion basics including the process of decarboxylation . This is a process to activate the phytocannibinoids.
What aabout the recipes? There's a wide variety of them. You could try Ms. Lo's cannabis infused sugar made with a cannabis tincture .it would be an interesting addition to teas and fruit ades. There are many gummie recipes that would make fun gifts and party bites. Kombucha gummies are an interesting mix of the tea and Kief (a kind of cannabis pollen) infused honey. A really cool dessert would be terrazzo coffee jelly which looks like tiles and is a mix of coffee and coconut jellies. Fill a candy dish with sour pink lemonade and blackberry thyme gummies along with lavender chamomile ones that will help with sleep. There is also a bubble tea recipe too for a soothing sip. Trendy candy makers will appreciate the salted mocha.caramel recipe. rich with whipping cream and cannabis infused butter (and yes you can infuse butter with it , there's a recipe fro that too. That alone would be great for different spins on traditiional savory recipes). Ms. Lo also includes nougat and hard candy ones too. There is a nod to her favorite Chinese candy snowflake crisp nougat made with tea biscuits, whole almonds, the infused butter and marshmallow. Enthisiasts will love the lollipop and brittle recipes along with a jelly and cream recipe. There are also recipes for marzipan and honey chews,alternatives to refined sugar.
