Instructions

1

Bring carrots and potatoes to a boil in broth. Simmer for 10 minutes.
2

Add green beans, zucchini, and tomatoes. Simmer for another 10 minutes.
3

Stir in white beans and pasta. Simmer 8–10 minutes until pasta is al dente. Season with salt.
4

Cannabis Pistou: Pound garlic, basil, and Parmesan in a mortar or blend in a food processor until fine. Slowly drizzle in both oils until smooth pesto forms.
5

Remove soup from heat. Never cook Cannabis Pistou — it's stirred in directly at the table.
6

Ladle soup into bowls. Add a generous spoonful of Cannabis Pistou to each bowl.
7

Pass additional pistou and grated Parmesan separately.

Pro Tips

Never cook pistou — basil turns black, garlic becomes bitter, Cannabis ZenOil loses THC.
Provençal pistou, unlike Genoese pesto, contains no pine nuts — pure basil-garlic-cheese character.
Fresh borlotti beans in summer, straight from the pod, are a revelation.
Make the soup the day before, prepare the pistou fresh — it oxidizes quickly.
