High Cookery: Your Guide to Cannabis Cooking and Munchies

100+ recipes to enhance the cannabis culinary experience

by Gilad Meiri 

Pub Date: April 20, 2020 

 Not all cannabis-infused ideas are good, but a new cookbook by Gilad Meiri is well thought out and brilliant. In High Cookery: Your Guide to Cannabis Cooking and Munchies, Meiri celebrates the inseparable relationship of food and this incredibly healing plant. With beautiful photography and over 100 recipes, the book is a comprehensive guide to cooking with cannabis and creating dishes to complement and enhance the high experience.

 With recent legalization (in many regions) and the greater acceptance of cannabis, High Cookery is particularly relevant today. Bringing weed out of the half-hidden shadows and into our kitchens, this book is designed to enhance the pleasures of responsible consumption. As Meiri explains, “Being high should be looked at as an opportunity. Food is not merely a means to satisfy the munchies: it can be an essential part of your adventure.”

 The book is broken into two sections: Canna Cooking and Cooking for the Munchies. In the first section, Meiri addresses the complex chemical nature of cannabis, followed by infusion recipes that cover everything from butter and coconut oil to honey and vodka. Using these infusions as a base, he then provides creative recipes both sweet and savory. There is a little bit of everything, including ‘High Fudge Sundaes,’ ‘Cake Pot-Pops,’ ‘Healthy Cannackers’ and ‘Weed Chai Masala.’ 

 “Face it: You’re going to eat” he explains in kicking off the second section of his book, Cooking for the Munchies, so you might as well prepare good food and plan ahead. Here, he provides gourmet recipes to enhance the dining experience beyond stereotypical junk food snacks. From “Unorthodox Combinations” that may seem unconventional but are brilliant when high, to simple recipes that aren’t too complicated to make, even when a bit “lit”, Meiri delivers an inspirational collection of delicious and satisfying dishes.

 In this cookbook, Meiri is humorous, observant and detailed, taking the reader on a delightful culinary exploration of cannabis and cooking. As visually stimulating as it is mouthwatering, the cookbook is sure to be a fixture for entertaining.
