Matsu bang buttah:
Take every bit of the plant (except the buds which should be curing properly, another thread), stalks stems leaves into a big pot
A lb or two of salted butter, in
Water to near top of pot
Optional: add a few cinnamon sticks, makes the house smell nice
Bring to boil, reduce to low simmer, 24 hours or until it has a black color and sheen you'll know it when you see it - don't rush
Stir occasionally, add water if level gets too low
Pour through strainer into container
Rinse throughly the butter on the strainer stuff with more water that also goes into container
Container goes into the fridge
Wait a day, butter will have separated and hardened on top of the water into a green disk on top of black water
Remove it carefully, probably have to go around the edges with a knife
Get rid of the black water
There will be scum on the underside of your green butter disk, carefully remove that too with knife.
Put butter disk in pot, melt on low heat, pour liquid into small measured sealable containers and freeze
Make whatever that requires butter
I make Betty crocker instant chocolate chip cookies, the butter to mix ratio is high, a bag that makes 12 is 99 cents, and one or two will put you on your keester for half a day.
Suggestion is look at the directions before you buy a brownie mix and get the best butter to non butter ratio
