Delta 9 THC

 

The holidays with family can be stressful. Between your uncle arguing politics at the dinner table, the couple that won’t stop arguing, and kids kicking and screaming – it’s more than the best of us can handle sometimes. Not to worry, kick your holiday dinner up a notch with these infused dishes you can make using Mellow Fellow products. 

 

Note: Don’t unleash these recipes on unsuspecting family members, as funny as it would be to see your uptight aunt after some infused gravy, it’s not cool.

 

The Bases – Butter, Oil, etc.

With these recipes, you can make just about any herb-infused recipe. These will be the base of all of our recipes, so learn how to make these first.

 

To start either, you’ll need to decarb your flower. You can order Delta-8 flower on our page to use for your recipe to get delicious infused butter or oil. To decarb, place your flower evenly on a baking sheet covered with aluminum foil. Bake at 240F/115C for 25 till 45 minutes. When its done it should look lightly toasted (haha), not burnt. Let cool. Grind or chop up all of your cannabis until it’s in fine pieces.

 

For butter, take ¼ to ½ ounce of herb and place it in a strong mason jar with 1 cup of butter. Seal the jar and place it in a pot of cold water. Let the water come to a boil, keeping a close eye. Let it boil for 2-3 hours. After, remove the jar carefully (it will be hot, duh) and let it cool slightly. Strain the butter-herb mixture through a cheesecloth (use gloves!) or any other similar material into the heat-resistant container of your choice. Let firm and use in your recipe when ready!

For the oil, add 2.33 grams of bud to ½ cup of olive/canola oil (feel free to scale up or down depending on your desired yield) to a double boiler, sous vide, or crock pot. Cook at 185F/85C for 2 hours. Strain through a cheesecloth (use gloves!) or any other similar material into the heat-resistant container of your choice. Let cool and use in your recipe when ready!

Infused Turkey Gravy 

A classic at Thanksgiving and many other holiday meals. Let the turkey know it didn’t die to be overcooked by grandma. Use some of the delicious fat and juices it cooked off to make an infused gravy you’ll love even more than the classic.

 

Ingredients:

 

1/4 cup fat skimmed from drippings 

1 tbsp Cannabis butter

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

2 cups liquid (juices from roasted turkey, broth, water)

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon pepper

Directions:

  1. Transfer the fat to a large saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Let the fat melt and then sprinkle on the flour. Using a wooden spoon, stir continuously until the fat and flour have formed a homogeneous mixture. Continue stirring for 2-3 minutes. 
  3. Whisk in the hot drippings slowly into the roux. Keep whisking until the liquids are fully incorporated.
  4. Bring the gravy to a simmer and continue simmering until it reaches your desired consistency.
  5. Season with salt and pepper and 1 tbsp of cannabis butter.
  6. Serve with anything that will taste better with gravy!

Infused Mac & Cheese

The great equalizer of holiday meals. You would think it was a simple enough dish to not mess up, but let’s be honest – we’ve had some pretty nasty mac and cheese. A little effort goes a long way. Make your own roux, use real cheese (this is an ANTI-Velveeta and Kraft cheese-product household), and the mac and cheese gods will reward you with a delicious dish you can shovel away by yourself or share in the munchies with your friends.
