Today, we’ll delve into the art of crafting cannabis-infused savory soufflés, a gourmet dish that’s as delightful to create as it is to consume.

The Secret to a Perfect Soufflé

Creating a perfect soufflé is an art form, requiring precision and care. When infusing cannabis into this dish, the stakes are even higher to ensure flavors blend harmoniously. Follow these key steps to master this culinary delight:

  • Choose Fresh Ingredients: Use farm-fresh eggs, high-quality cheese, and freshly ground herbs to enhance the flavor profile.
  • Infuse with Care: Decarboxylate your cannabis before infusing it into a fat, like butter, which will be used in your soufflé base.
  • Maintain Temperature: Preheat your oven and avoid opening it during baking to ensure the soufflé rises beautifully.

Infusion Process: Butter and Beyond

The key to a successful cannabis-infused soufflé lies in a perfect infusion. Here’s how you can prepare cannabis-infused butter for your savory masterpiece:

  1. Decarboxylate: Grind your cannabis and bake it at 240°F (115°C) for 40 minutes to activate the THC.
  2. Infuse: Combine 1 cup of butter and the decarboxylated cannabis in a saucepan. Simmer at low heat for 2-3 hours.
  3. Strain: Use cheesecloth to strain the mixture, discarding the plant material.
  4. Cool: Let the butter cool and solidify, ready to be used in your soufflé!
