Easy Cannabis Infused Spaetzle Recipe (Cooking with Cannabutter) | Herbistry420
Spaetzle is a soft German egg pasta that works well for cannabis cooking because the dough absorbs infused fats easily. You can infuse the recipe using cannabutter for frying or infused milk in the batter depending on the desired potency.
This guide explains how to prepare the dish safely and control dosage when cooking with THC.
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 2 cups flour
- ½ cup milk (or water)
- 1 tsp salt
- Butter for frying (regular or cannabutter)
- Optional: garlic, pepper, chili powder
Choosing Your Infusion Method
You have two options:
1) Infused Milk (stronger)
Mix infused milk directly into the batter.
2) Cannabutter (milder)
Fry the cooked spaetzle in cannabutter.
Milder effect than using infused milk.
Beginners should always use lower potency infusions.
How to Make the Dough
- Crack eggs into a bowl
- Add flour, milk, and salt
- Mix until a loose, runny batter forms
- Add small amounts of milk if too thick
The dough should slowly flow off a spoon — not stiff like bread dough.
Cooking the Spaetzle
- Bring salted water to a boil
- Push batter through a sieve or spoon into water
- Cook until pieces float
- Transfer immediately to cold water or ice bath
- Drain completely
Floating indicates the pasta is cooked.
Frying and Flavoring
Heat butter in a pan (use cannabutter if infusing).
Add:
- garlic
- salt
- pepper
- chili powder (optional)
Fry until lightly golden.
Dosage Tips When Cooking with Cannabis
Cooking with infused fats makes dosing less predictable than packaged edibles.
To reduce risk:
- start with low-potency butter
- portion servings before eating
- wait at least 2 hours before more
Homemade edibles often feel stronger than expected.
Storage
Unfried spaetzle can be refrigerated and reheated in butter later.
Infused dishes should always be labeled and kept away from children and pets.
Key Takeaways
- Infuse via milk (mild) or butter (strong)
- Portion before eating
- Effects delayed like any edible
- Always start with a small serving
How to Estimate Potency Per Serving
When cooking with cannabis, the strength of the meal depends entirely on the potency of the infused ingredient. Because homemade infusions vary, it is safer to estimate conservatively.
A simple method:
- Determine the total THC in your butter or milk
- Divide by the number of servings
- Start with half a serving if unsure
Example:
If your cannabutter contains about 100 mg THC and you divide the dish into 10 portions, each serving is roughly 10 mg THC.
When trying a new infusion, begin with a small portion and wait at least 2 hours before eating more.
Tips for Consistent Edible Cooking
Consistency matters more than strength when making infused meals.
Helpful practices:
- mix the batter thoroughly so THC distributes evenly
- avoid overheating infused fats
- portion before serving
- clearly label infused food in storage
Because digestion affects absorption, eating the meal with additional fats can increase intensity.
When to Avoid Cannabis Edibles
Cannabis-infused meals should be consumed responsibly. Some situations are not appropriate for edible use.
Avoid consuming infused foods if you:
- need to drive or operate equipment
- are in an unfamiliar environment
- plan to drink alcohol
- have important responsibilities later in the day
Edibles last much longer than inhaled cannabis and may impair coordination and judgment for several hours. Always choose a comfortable setting and allow enough time for the effects to wear off.
