CBD Cannabis Cooking Recipes

The CBD Cannabis, the Wellness Revolution

Still relatively unknown, but used in many different fields, CBD is making its way into our diets, homes, and even our bathrooms! Let’s discover together the benefits of this product, which sometimes has a negative reputation.

Discover our CBD-based recipes

Often confused with cannabis that gets you high, CBD is not psychoactive. In fact, the two molecules derived from hemp are different. THC is the molecule that will get you high, whereas CBD, short for cannabidiol, has only a calming effect on the nervous system. In the end, it’s a bit like vaping: you enjoy the pleasure without the health risks! It’s legal and safe, even in high doses. Considering the rapid rise of CBD, our site offers a growing variety of CBD-based products that you can buy online from home.

Delicious dishes
You might have seen "Cooked with Cannabis" on Netflix, a show where the star ingredient is cannabis, and chefs must use their creativity to craft dishes with herbs and THC. Don’t worry, it’s not about getting high like the judges or making awful space cakes and cookies!

CBD cooking, which is gaining popularity, only uses the plant’s relaxing and fortifying properties, without any psychotropic effects. Hemp plant contains all essential amino acids and fatty acids needed by the body. It offers an exceptional nutritional value, healthy and easy to prepare at home!

The advantage of this product in cooking is its extreme versatility. It can be used in teas, sauces, cakes, cookies, candies, and even cat food!

Why add CBD to your recipes?

CBD is a legal molecule belonging to the family of cannabinoids (like cannabis and hemp). Adapted to our bodies, it acts as a catalyst and enhances the natural response to pain and anxiety. It helps reduce stress and allows for less reliance on pain medication.

Juices and smoothies, teas, sodas, sweet and salty snacks, cosmetics—discover the many ways to incorporate this beneficial oil into your daily life.

The benefits of CBD:

Fights pain and inflammation
Reduces nausea
Decreases stress and anxiety
Helps improve sleep quality

What does CBD mean?

CBD is short for cannabidiol, one of the cannabinoid compounds naturally found in the cannabis plant. Unlike THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), which gives the "high" effect, CBD is entirely non-psychoactive and won’t make you feel "high." CBD is just one of the 100 cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant, and many scientific studies have shown that CBD holds the greatest therapeutic potential of all cannabinoids.

You can use CBD in foods by incorporating it into your recipes (but don’t heat it above 160°C or its effects will be diminished), or you can dilute it directly into a drink or onto food.

How to Make CBD Pizza - Happy Pizza!

Ingredients

CBD Cannabis Oil
200g of flour
5g of baker’s yeast
½ tablespoon of sugar
Warm water
2 large chopped tomatoes
Pepper
Salt
Rosemary
Trimmed cannabis can be substituted with oregano

Personal toppings (e.g., mozzarella, bacon, salami, onions, mushrooms)

Instructions:

The Dough

1. For the best taste, homemade dough is recommended. Mix the yeast in a large glass of warm water. Add a pinch of salt and some sugar.

2. Let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes.

3. In a bowl, mix a pinch of salt, 200 grams of flour, and 2-3 tablespoons of your CBD oil.

4. Add the glass of yeast and water mixture, knead for about 10 minutes. The dough is ready when it is elastic and no longer sticky.

5. Cover the dough and place it in a warm area for at least 1 hour.

The Sauce

6. Prepare the cannabis pizza tomato sauce. To make it, mix the tomatoes, a pinch of salt, pepper, rosemary, cannabis trim, and half a cup of hot water in a saucepan.

The amount of seasoning can be adjusted to your taste. Let it simmer over medium heat for 15 minutes. This will allow everything to reduce into a sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a little more water. If it's too liquid, let it boil until the water evaporates and it thickens.

The Pizza

7. Roll out the dough and spread the tomato sauce on top. Here is your basic CBD pizza.

8. Next, you can add toppings as you wish. Popular choices include mozzarella cheese, bacon, onions, and mushrooms... You have many options as you can add almost any ingredient.

9. You can now drizzle a bit of cannabis-infused oil on your pizza for extra effects.

10. Bake in the oven at 200°C for 18-20 minutes until golden brown.

CBD Beer Recipe

A big thank you to Clawhammer Supply for this amazing recipe. Their experience with brewing hemp and CBD beer led them to also add blueberries.

This beer was named Blueberry Kush.

This beer didn’t turn out exactly as we had hoped, but it’s absolutely stellar. It's a light beer with a hint of blueberry and plenty of body. Given the amount of hops we added, it’s not as bitter as we expected.

Adding hemp gives the beer a slight nutty flavor, and the CBD works well with the alcohol. Note that CBD is a byproduct of hemp plants and usually contains little to no THC. If you need to pass a drug test, make sure to use 100% pure CBD.

How to Make Hemp and CBD Beer

This beer is made using standard beer brewing procedures on brew day. However, hemp and CBD are added at the end of the cooking process. Also, since it's a blonde beer, it must ferment at a lower temperature and age at 1.7°C for several weeks.

Recipes for Making a CBD Space Cake

What is a Space Cake and Where is it Eaten?

The original space cake is a delicious cake made from a mixture of butter, flour, sugar, milk, and eggs, with enough cannabis added in an alcoholic solution, such as rum, or alternatively in a fat base like butter or margarine. This is a prerequisite for marijuana to release the maximum amount of active ingredients available without affecting its effectiveness or later effects.

This recipe originated in Amsterdam, the place that popularized it, making space cake one of the most common, consumed, and enjoyed products in coffee shops.

How to Make a CBD Flower Space Cake

As mentioned earlier, the classic CBD cake recipe lends itself to many creative variations: additional ingredients can be added to enrich the already distinctive taste of cannabis.

Main Ingredients for 8 People:

10 Gr of Cannabis Flower, preferably Lemon Haze, Orange Bud, Gelato
200 Gr of flour
250 Gr of butter
250 Gr of brown sugar/cane sugar
4 whole eggs
1 ½ glass of milk
Half a sachet of vanilla baking powder
Fine salt to taste
Chocolate chips of your choice

However, before you start making the cake, an important preliminary operation related to the cannabis itself must be carried out, known as decarboxylation. This is a specific chemical process that enhances the impact of the active ingredients in the cake.

Thanks to this process, cannabinoids can be transformed from their basic, inactive form into active acidic forms due to the presence of heat. In fact, the active ingredients themselves, when exposed to heat, are placed in a position that promotes their concentration, thus increasing their subsequent impact.

To decarboxylate, take the cannabis flowers and spread them on an aluminum baking sheet without overlapping, leaving enough space between them. Place them in the oven at 104 to 113°C for about an hour.
Once the necessary time has passed and decarboxylation is complete, the cannabis can be prepared for the space cake: fat is required, in this case, butter, pre-cut into cubes and melted at room temperature. Then, add the appropriately chopped CBD flowers.
The oil and cannabis mixture is then placed in a saucepan and heated over very low heat for about 20-25 minutes to allow the cannabinoids to combine well with the fat, taking care not to boil everything to avoid losing active ingredients. The result is the so-called kanamaslo, which is used as an ingredient in the space cake when cold and homogeneous.
Once the butter has cooled with the cannabis, add it to the sugar, eggs, and milk, stirring with a whisk or electric mixer until the mixture is smooth and fluffy. Then, add the flour, baking powder, and chocolate chips, making sure to mix everything well until smooth and lump-free. If the mixture is too thick, simply add a little more milk. If it's too liquid, just add one or two tablespoons of flour.
Finally, line the baking tray, preferably with a non-stick coating, with a sheet of parchment paper. Pour the mixture in and level it with a spatula until it’s evenly distributed. It will take about 45 minutes to bake in the oven, preferably fan-assisted and heated to about 160°C, making sure not to open the oven until it’s fully baked to avoid disturbing the yeast and the final result.
Once the necessary time has passed, check that the cake is ready by inserting a toothpick: if it's dry, simply wait for the cake to cool completely and then enjoy it with a great tea.

If necessary, put it back in the oven for another 5-7 minutes, ensuring the surface doesn’t burn, which would compromise the final result. Once ready, the space cake can be decorated with powdered sugar, moistened with rum, covered with icing, or filled with cream as desired.

A Recipe by Linda Louis, Extracted from her Book "Super Hemp and CBD"

For 4-6 people

200 g of baking chocolate
70 g of shelled hemp seeds
15 g of Burgundy truffles
130 ml of chickpea juice*
1 tbsp of lemon juice
CBD oil 5 to 10%

Break the chocolate and melt it in a bain-marie.

Blend the hemp seeds with 90 ml of water until you obtain a smooth and creamy texture. Add it to the chocolate and mix well.

Finely grate the Burgundy truffle (keep 4 to 6 thin slices for decoration) and add it to the cooled melted chocolate (make sure it’s not too hot).

Whip the chickpea juice with the lemon juice as you would for egg whites. Start slowly, then gradually increase the speed. Fold it into the chocolate-hemp mixture in three parts using a flexible spatula.

Distribute half of the mousse into 4 or 6 ramekins. Drip 3 drops of CBD oil per ramekin, then cover with the remaining chocolate mousse. Decorate with truffle slices.

Let cool in the fridge for at least 4 hours before enjoying.

A Recipe by Linda Louis, Extracted from her Book "Super Hemp and CBD"

150 g of shelled hemp seeds
150 g of water
A pinch of salt
1 hemp leaf (optional)

Blend the hemp seeds with water and salt until you obtain a smooth paste.

Line the bottom of a small stainless steel mold (15 x 15 cm square or round, like a tiffin – stackable Indian stainless steel lunch box) with a lightly oiled sheet of parchment paper. Pour in the hemp cream. If you have fresh hemp leaves in your garden, place one on top.

Steam for 15 minutes. It's important to cover with a domed lid so that water droplets don't fall on the hemp cream. If you have a flat lid, use this Japanese technique: first, stretch a cloth over the pot, then place the lid on top.

Check the tofu's doneness, it should be firm and bouncy to the touch. Remove the mold and let it cool.

Using a sharp knife, loosen the edges and then unmold the tofu.

Remove the parchment paper.

At this stage, the hempfu can be cooked directly as it is very firm.

Otherwise, store it in the refrigerator in an airtight container (or in the cooking mold).

Ideas for Using CBD Agave Syrup

Like stevia, agave syrup is one of the new discoveries in our kitchens.

Its nutritional qualities and high sweetening power, along with a neutral taste, make it easy to use daily in many dishes and preparations.

Agave syrup to sweeten drinks or yogurts

Agave syrup is particularly suited for hot drinks like green tea and mint tea.

Unlike sugar or honey, agave syrup dissolves very well in cold liquids. With 4x the sweetening power of sugar, it is perfect for sweetening smoothies, iced teas, and juices, as well as yogurts, cottage cheese, or fruit salads.

Agave syrup for cooking

Agave syrup is great for cold sweetening: thanks to its liquid form, there's no need to heat the preparation to incorporate the sugar, especially since cannabidiol doesn't like high temperatures.

Agave syrup is very convenient in baking and easy to use in cake batters and other sweet preparations.
