Medicated compound butter is the most versatile way I think to add thc to any thing you like to use butter, place on top of fish ore a juicy steak, put on a baked potato, or corn on the cob, whatever you like.

INGREDIENTS:

3     ounces fresh basil (minced)

3     ounces shallots or red onion (minced)

1     ounce fresh garlic (minced)

1/4 lb. medicated butter (softened)

3/4 lb. unsalted butter (softened)

2     teaspoons lemon juice

DIRECTIONS:

Chop basil as small as you can get it, set aside.

Now chop the onion and  garlic as small as you can. set aside.

Place your medicated butter in a mixer with the paddle attachment.

Mix the two butters on low speed, then slowly add the lemon juice.

Add the onion/garlic, mix a little.

Last add the basil so as not to bruis it.

***** you can mix it by hand, but the heat of your hands will melt the butter if handled too long.

Next fold the mixture onto a piece of wax paper or thick plastic wrap.

Roll it into a thick tube and scrunch the ends.

Keep it in the freezer until needed, it will be hard enough in about an hour. this is when the flavour is best, but it will hold for years in the freezer.
