Instructions

  1. 1
    Cook potatoes until very soft. Drain while hot and let steam dry completely — residual moisture is the enemy of aligot.
  2. 2
    Press through a potato ricer — never purée or blend, this makes aligot gummy.
  3. 3
    Stir in cannabis butter and regular butter. Gradually work in hot cream. Stir in grated garlic.
  4. 4
    Gradually stir in tomme fraîche in thin slices — always stir in a clockwise direction.
  5. 5
    Continue stirring over medium heat until long, glossy cheese strands form. This takes 5-10 minutes of vigorous stirring.
  6. 6
    Aligot is ready when you tilt the bowl and the cheese pulls in long strands.
  7. 7
    Serve immediately — aligot does not wait.

Pro Tips

  • Work in cannabis butter early — it combines better with hot potatoes than cold butter.
  • Tomme fraîche is essential for the strands — regular cheese breaks up and doesn't pull strands.
  • Aligot waits for no one — get it to the table immediately, it pulls more strands and cools with each minute.
  • Traditionally aligot is served with Saucisse de Toulouse or grilled meat.
