How to make cannabis soup?

We offer you to taste a soup by Chef Ashley Boudreaux that combines different strains of cannabis in its recipes according to their terpenes. Indeed, each plant has different terpenes, each of which has its own uniqueness. Choosing the right variety of cannabis to combine with the right dish is important. Asian dishes often have complementary fragrances that make it easy to incorporate cannabis. This variation of The Thai Tom Yum Ganja Soup is available in The Official High Times Cannabis Cookbook. In this dish prepared in 30 minutes, the cannabis goes very well with lemongrass, basil and mint.
