THE PAIRING
So why was this tasty brie-bite recipe paired with Seed & Smith’s Garlic Road strain? Here’s Taylor’s take on this cannabis-appetizer marriage…
“I paired these bites with Garlic Road for so many reasons! This strain really is my favorite of the garlic strains because of how it smells and tastes. The garlic, almost cheesy smell is funky and delicious. But when smoked, it’s surprisingly sweet, and not at all overpoweringly spicy like some garlic strains. I think it tastes this way in both the flower and concentrate, which is something I rarely find, and really love. This strain reminds me of another favorite sweet & savory combo… cheese and fruit. So, I couldn’t resist the idea to pair this with my favorite cheese, brie. This recipe feels like a true embodiment of Garlic Road. Savory, a little salty, a little garlic-y, a hint of rich herbs thanks to the rosemary & the sweetness of creamy brie and cranberry sauce. They go together wonderfully, both the flower and weed concentrate! It sounds like you need to try this pairing for your own so you know where I’m coming from!”
CANNABIS & FOOD
As history has shown, cannabis and food have long been paired together to create truly amazing infusions or to augment the body’s sensory receptivity to certain flavors and tastes, as you saw in this dish. And you can buy the concentrate wax all ready for cooking. Try it out for yourself and let us know what you think! Happy Thanksgiving everyone and we hope you enjoy this cannabis Thanksgiving recipe!
