About Canadian Cannabis Cooking

Canada legalised recreational cannabis nationwide in October 2018 — making it one of the world's most advanced cannabis markets. Home edibles culture in Canada is well-established, with a strong emphasis on precise dosing. Health Canada recommends starting with no more than 2.5 mg THC for first-time edible users, waiting at least 4 hours before taking more.

Canadian cuisine features heavy use of butter, cream, cheese curds and maple syrup — all of which work exceptionally well with cannabutter infusion. The richness of Canadian comfort food (poutine, tourtière, butter tarts) means THC is absorbed alongside significant fat content, which can intensify effects. Start low.
