This cannabis infused sesame oil recipe is one of the most useful infusions you can make — sesame oil has such a strong, rich aroma that it fully masks the cannabis smell, making it discreet and easy to cook with. Here are 5 best tips for getting it right the first time, using the POT by Noids infusing machine or a stovetop method.
What You Need for Cannabis Infused Sesame Oil Recipe
The ingredient list is short. You need decarbed cannabis (roughly 3.5 grams at 20% THC gives around 600mg total), sesame oil (200ml is a good batch size), and an infusing machine or a small saucepan. The POT by Noids is ideal for this — it handles small batches cleanly and controls temperature automatically. If you are doing the stovetop method, keep the heat below 160°F (71°C) and stir occasionally for about an hour. The machine method takes longer — expect 3 to 3.5 hours — but is entirely hands-off.
5 Best Tips for Sesame Oil Cannabis Infusion
- Always decarb first — Raw cannabis has no psychoactive effect until decarboxylated. Bake your cannabis at 240°F (115°C) for 40 minutes before infusing. After decarbing, the buds become brittle and easy to break apart by hand directly into the infusing chamber — no grinder required, though grinding is fine too. This step is non-negotiable for any sesame oil cannabis infusion that actually works.
- Use 200ml of sesame oil — This is the sweet spot for a 3.5g batch. It covers the material fully and gives you a potent, concentrated result. You can pour the finished infusion back into the original sesame oil bottle for storage — a 207ml bottle holds it perfectly. The cannabis stir fry oil produced is strong, so use it by the teaspoon in cooking rather than the tablespoon.
- POT by Noids sesame oil setting — Select the “Infuse THC” mode on the machine. The machine does not run on a fixed timer — it monitors temperature and decides when the infusion is complete. Expect 3 to 3.5 hours for sesame oil, which runs longer than most other oils. The white light at the base signals completion. Have heat-resistant gloves ready — the glass chamber gets very hot.
- Sesame oil masks cannabis smell completely — One of the best reasons to infuse sesame oil with cannabis is that the sesame aroma is so dominant it overwhelms the cannabis. To someone without a trained nose, the oil smells entirely like toasted sesame. This makes it easier to cook with in shared spaces without drawing attention. The finished cannabis infused sesame oil recipe produces an oil that smells and tastes like pure sesame.
- Use the pulp in a second recipe — After straining, the spent cannabis pulp is not waste. It still contains cannabinoids and can be added to cooked dishes — stir into a sauce, mix into a marinade, or bake into a dish that masks the texture. The pulp works anywhere you would add a bit of oil or fat. Do not throw it away before trying it in something.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make cannabis infused sesame oil recipe on the stovetop?
Yes. Keep the temperature below 160°F (71°C) using a thermometer and stir occasionally for about an hour. The machine method produces a more consistent result because it regulates temperature automatically, but stovetop works fine if you monitor it carefully. The finished oil from either method is equally usable as cannabis stir fry oil.
How strong is the cannabis infused sesame oil?
Using 3.5 grams at roughly 20% THC in 200ml of oil gives approximately 600mg total across the batch — about 3mg per teaspoon. That is a mild to moderate dose per serving if you use a teaspoon in a stir fry divided between several people. Adjust the cannabis amount up or down based on your preferred potency.
How do I store the finished infusion?
Store the finished cannabis infused sesame oil recipe in a sealed glass bottle in a cool, dark place or in the refrigerator. The oil will last as long as regular sesame oil — typically several months. Keep it away from direct light to preserve potency.
