Drizzle with olive oil. Roast 25–30 minutes until pepper skins turn black.
3

Transfer peppers to a bowl, cover with foil. Steam for 10 minutes.
4

Peel skin from peppers and tomatoes. Squeeze garlic out of skins.
5

Place everything in a pot. Melt cannabis butter and add.
6

Pour in broth. Puree with immersion blender until smooth.
7

Stir in cream. Season with smoked paprika, cayenne, salt, and lemon juice.

Ladle into bowls. Swirl with crème fraîche, top with paprika and basil.

Pro Tips

Roasting in the oven is key — the sweetness and smoky flavor of peppers develop this way.
Add cannabis butter directly to the hot roasted ingredients — THC dissolves optimally into vegetable fat.
For more depth: Stir in 1 tsp chipotle paste — adds smoke without grilling.
