farmers, award-winning chefs, artisans, and food producers across the

The Art of Cooking with Cannabis
is a valuable resource for new inspiration and excitement surrounding
cannabis, food, and responsible consumption. Tracey Medeiros introduces
the reader to dozens of organic farmers, award-winning chefs, artisans,
and food producers who are leading the green revolution by doing their
part to demystify cannabis and its culinary use. Individual profiles
contain stories from the book’s contributors who come from rural and
suburban communities and bustling cities across this nation. These folks
have generously shared their personal struggles and successes which
have led them to understand the many health and wellness benefits of the
cannabis plant and its important role in society.
From chemistry to culinary, the book contains 125 mouthwatering recipes, such as:
- Chicken Kale Meatballs with Cherry Tomato and Pesto Sauces from Chef Jordan Wagman
- Avocado Mash with Nori and Cucumber from Chef Michael Magliano
- CBD-Infused Vegan Gluten-Free Miso Broth from Jessica Catalano
- THC- and CBD-Infused Smoked Cheddar with Green Chili Stone-Ground Grits from Chef Kevin Grossi
- Sh’mac and Cheese from Carly Fisher
- Vegan No-Bake Cashew Cheese Cake from Chef Maria Hines
Simple
and beautifully presented spirit-free and spirit cocktails such as “The
700 Club” and “Rebellious” are also featured in the cookbook from
contributors including Entente Chicago and Prank Bar.
Recipes
are divided into three categories—CBD, Hemp, and THC—each adapted to
meet the reader’s cooking and tolerance levels. Insightful sidebars
offer informative tips and “how-to” guidance, helping the cook to use
cannabis with ease and confidence.
"A comprehensive and delicious look at the endless possibilities of the cannabis kitchen, The Art of Cooking with Cannabis brings
together the farm-to-table movement and cannabis in a new and unique
way. Jam-packed with chef-created recipes featuring cannabis and hemp in
a wide variety of techniques and dishes, The Art of Cooking with Cannabis makes
cooking with this star ingredient simple and versatile. From desserts
to dressing and everything in between, each recipe would be delicious
with or without cannabis. But what really sets this cookbook apart from
the pack is Mederios’s detailed storytelling that examines each recipe’s
inspiration and tells each chef’s story, while connecting them to the
farmers behind the food. In this way, Mederios brings the farm-to-table
movement to cannabis, and by breaking the book into regional sections,
the reader can see local ingredients, flavors, and trends emerge, making
this book as much an anthology of food in the United States as is it
culinary cannabis across the country." —Rachel Burkons, co-founder of
