Thread: Tips for a newbie cooker

hey everyone

longtime smoker first time cooker, parents are going to new york for about 2 weeks, which means major party at my place, always wanted to cook brownies so ill give that a go, found a couple of good recipes, just wanted to ask if anyone knows a nice easy way to cook and if anyone can oddwe any tips a newbie might find helpfull, also im buying 14grams (thats $150 AUD) which i hope will last me the entire 2 weeks, how much should i put in a small tray of brownies, i dont wanna put in too much because me and my mates bought a large variety of bongs, vapourizers and flavoured papers for the occaision, which means alot of smoking, so the brownies arent really to get us high, theyre just to try somethign different

alsowill weed leave a bad smell in the oven, or would it clear out after a while,t worried bout my mum comming back home to find the kitchen smelling of doob

you bought a bunch of pipes just for while they are gone?


and you should make firecrackers, that will be conservative, or maybe even a tincture recipe or something

That uses 5 grams and can feed 32 people. have a brownie party one night.

If you don't have a grinder or some equipment that can ground your pot into a VERY FINE powder, then I'd recommend making some budder first...just SLOWLY fry your broke-up pot in some butter in a frying pan...use the unsalted kind...and real butter seems to work the best, but other oils could arguably work. Cook the weed in the butter for as long as you can without letting it get too brown or burnt. Then you can use a fine sifter, a splash guard, a coffee filter, or some other strainer apparatus to filter out the pot...that way you're not chewing on dope or stems or anything like that. Just remember, the budder will get cooked a second time when you are actually baking the brownies, so don't brown it too much. This is why I say fry it SLOWLY...you want the longest possible exposure of the bud to the butter without burning it. Happy partying!

P.S., budder lasts a long long time in the refrigerator

thanks for the tips guys, especially you silas, to be honest i was thinking of using a good brownie mix but found nothing good that used butter, since i know have this method of using oil instead i think i can do it now, thanks

will also make some budder though, been dying to try it on toast....... and am thinking about using 1 gram to make some potcorn, saw it on weeds and thought it looked interesting, anyone ever tried it before?

i can DEFINITELY say that budder tastes HORRIBLE on toast, i didn't enjoy that at all..you should use it to bake....and "toast" your pot for a few minutes before extracting...this causes decarboxylation and blah blah blah...just read the other posts under Recipes, it's all there....later

You realize that eating bud getts you a lot higher than smoking it? If you want something simple then just through a small bud ing a glass of Hot chocolate and milk and heat it in the microwave. Should get you pretty high.

made brownies about 24 hours ago, a big tray full 5 grams (used silas's recipe), one of my mates had 2 slices, another had 3,, then i split the rest of the tray with a friend, i have been high for 24hours straight!!!! i made something beautiful, the taste was AMAZING, chocolate macadamia borwnies, next time im going to try penut butter and macadamia brownies, but i wont put so much pot in it.,.......

how would you compare the highs????

its completely different high, bloody unreal, i smoked before i ate, so i hadf a normal high, the when i ate after a while i felt it getting into my body. has another mat who was sober when he ate and it took him a good long hour to feel anything, but when he did he was completely baked, this morning when i woke up the head high from smoking was gone and the body high from eating remained, trhats what it is a full body high,

when you smoke you mostly feel it in your brain, but with food its completely in your body, your brain feels normal almost, but the rest of your body feels so amazing, hard to describe..... eating is DEFINATELY better than smoking thoughm, iuts more expensive coz u go through weed reall quick (5 grams would usually take me 2 weeks atleast), but definately worth it

a good tip for anyone who wants to try this, follow silas's recipe, its a winenr there, as it allows you to use a premix you can make a huge variety of cool tasting foods, i checked the supermarket recently, found so many things i wanna try cooking, though when u are eating, id suggest completely stocking up on every possible form of munchable food you would ever need, as when you get the munchies, its better to eat something other than more weed, thats the mistake i made last night, ate the entire tray, so i got a long high and nothing to eat now......
