The Official High Times Cannabis Cookbook: More Than 50 Irresistible Recipes That Will Get You High

I absolutely love this cookbook. Not only is it worth the money ,its very detailed on how much to use and what flavor goes good with what you're making

Much more than a cookbook. Breaks down the weed basics quickly and easily. Thanks High Times! The magazine of my childhood!

Great book I gave it out for a Christmas present and they use it a lot

I already knew a couple good recipes I learned from friends, but this has a good variety for how small the book is, like Snoops Hot Dog recipe and the basic recipes for butter and tinctures, I wish all the tinctures would be listed in one section the alcohol ones are near the end around Pg. 153 if I remember correctly and the Glycerin ones around Pg. 40. I have used several of the recipes like the butter, fudge, and tincture recipes and all has worked well. Good book to have if you want to try some new things out or have a reference.

I am a teetotaler, I don't drink, smoke or do drugs, but I also have no problem with other people doing whatever they want with their own bodies. I also consider myself to be a fairly competent chef, and combined with the fact that this book was only $3, I thought it might be an interesting read. Additionally, my grandfather died from wasting syndrome secondary to pulmonary fibrosis; had medical marijuana been available he probably would have lived several years longer and I'd have likely needed to learn how to prepare medicinal edibles. And I did learn quite a bit from this book. I'd always assumed you just chopped the stuff up and tossed it into the batter or whatever the same way you would use oregano. Boy was I ever wrong. The introduction contains technical information, such as differences between marijuana and hemp, differences between ingesting and smoking pot, chemical composition, etc, that helps you understand exactly what you're trying to accomplish in the first chapter. The first chapter of the book is the basic recipes, such as THC oil, cannabutter, tinctures, glycerites, marijuana flour, etc. This is the most important and most useful section of the book. Much like the five French mother sauces, once you've figured out how to make these base items, the rest of the book is pretty much the same as any other cookbook. In fact, you could probably adapt just about anything you'd find in the Joy of Cooking by replacing the oil or butter with an infused version. Whether you're in need of medicine or just wanting to enjoy some herbal refreshments, this book is a great place to learn the basics.

I can’t wait to try some of these delicious looking treats. I can grow my own herb in VA and it’s now affordable to experiment with making my own edibles. Something I can enjoy myself and share with my friends.

After reading through the book I was very impressed. Not only does it give you individual dish recipes, but it also gives you recipes for oil preparations (or the base materials used within the dish recipes). This is worth every penny simply from an information standpoint (I have yet to make a single dish as of yet). It also approaches the reader with the concept of understanding how you will measure for "dosage". This is imperative if you are sensitive to powerful, concentrated cannabis preparations. To get a little more insight to the book, check out the High Times report from the Denver Medical Marijuana Cannabis Cup from MunchieMinute. It has an interview with the author between 1:05-4:20.[Amazon won't let me link it... sigh...]

I bought this for a foodie for Christmas and this was right up his alley. Very intricate recipes and beautiful pictures inside the book so if you know a stoner with a knack for cooking this is a great gift. There's many different recipes more than the usual baking cookies and brownies. I don't know how anything tastes but I will have them fill me in once they try a few which I'm sure they will. 5 stars for the quality of the book nicely done.
