MAGIC BUTTER
½ oz or 14 grams MJ
1lb Salted Butter (can use any fat, i.e., vegan butter/ghee/tallow)
Instructions:
Grind flower and spread on a piece of parchment paper. Put into preheated 230° oven for 20-30 min. In a double boiler (or metal bowl over a boiling pot of water if no DB), add butter and allow to melt. Add flower to butter, allowing temperature to sit at 160° for 2-4 hours for best results. You can also use a crock pot for this step, set to low, but it is best to add water to prevent scorching. Strain through a fine mesh strainer to remove plant matter.
