Stoney says: start low, go slow — the forest isn't going anywhere. Wait 90 minutes before seconds.
Steps
- Brown the 135 g of plain butter over medium heat until the solids toast to a deep gold and the smell turns nutty. Scrape it all into a bowl and let it cool completely to a soft solid — the pan stage is finished before any infused butter appears.
- Mince the garlic to a paste with the flat of your knife and a pinch of the salt, so no single coin gets a raw chunk.
- In a bowl, work the cooled browned butter, the plain softened butter and the infused butter together until the mixture is one even colour with no lighter streaks. Even mixing is what makes every coin the same dose.
- Beat in the lemon juice a few drops at a time so the butter takes it up without splitting, then add the garlic paste, remaining salt and the pepper.
- Fold in the parsley and the other chopped herbs until they're evenly scattered through.
- Spoon the butter onto parchment or plastic wrap, roll into a tight cylinder about 20 cm long, twist the ends and chill at least 2 hours, or overnight, until solid to the centre.
- Unwrap the cold log, set a ruler against it, divide the length by 12 and press 11 measured score marks with the back of a knife. Cut cold, on the marks, with the ruler — never by eye.
- Serve a coin on a rested steak, grilled corn, a baked potato or hot bread at the table, so the butter melts on the plate rather than in the pan.
- Label it. Write on the wrapper and on the storage box: Infused — 60 mg THC total / 12 coins / 5 mg THC per coin, plus the date. 21+ household members only; store it apart from the everyday butter so nobody grabs the wrong stick.
