Servings & Dosage
Number of Servings: 20
Dosage per Serving: 5mg THC (based on 100ml Veda Warrior Infused Olive Oil)
Ingredients:
-
3 oil-packed anchovy fillets
-
1 garlic clove
-
¾ tsp kosher salt
-
1 large egg yolk
-
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
-
¾ tsp Dijon mustard
-
100ml Veda Warrior Olive Oil (5mg THC per serving)
-
3 tbsp Parmesan, finely grated
Instructions
-
In a mini chopper, blend the anchovy fillets, chopped garlic, and kosher salt until a smooth paste forms. You can also use a mortar and pestle or the flat side of a chef’s knife.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard.
-
Begin adding the infused olive oil very slowly—just a few drops at first—whisking constantly to form a stable emulsion. As the mixture thickens and turns glossy, gradually stream in the remaining oil while whisking.
-
Add a small splash of water to loosen the dressing until it reaches the consistency of heavy cream.
-
Stir in the anchovy-garlic paste and Parmesan until smooth and creamy.
-
Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt, if needed.
Healing Benefits of the Ingredients
Veda Warrior Infused Olive Oil
Olive oil is deeply nourishing and warming, which helps to balance dryness and lightness in the body. In Ayurveda, healthy fats are considered essential for brain function, joint lubrication, and cellular health. Infused with cannabis, this oil adds anti-inflammatory, calming properties that support the nervous system and promote gentle mental clarity.
Anchovies
High in omega-3s and protein, anchovies promote heart health and enhance the absorption of fat-soluble nutrients. Their salty, pungent flavor supports digestion and stimulates appetite, helping the body prepare for nourishment.
Garlic
Garlic strengthens the immune system, supports circulation, and clears toxins. It stimulates digestion and warms the body, especially beneficial during colder seasons or for those feeling sluggish or congested.
Egg Yolk
Egg yolks are a source of grounding, building energy in the body. Rich in choline and healthy fats, they support brain health, reproductive balance, and help nourish those feeling depleted or fatigued.
Lemon Juice
Cleansing and refreshing, lemon supports liver function and enhances the body's ability to digest and detoxify. Its sour taste also helps stimulate digestive enzymes.
Dijon Mustard
Mustard brings pungency that ignites digestive fire, known in Ayurveda as agni. It helps metabolize heavier foods and prevents sluggishness after eating rich meals.
Parmesan
Aged cheeses like Parmesan are grounding and nourishing in small amounts. Their umami flavor satisfies cravings and supports the body's need for dense, strengthening nutrients.
Dosing Guidance
This recipe yields 20 servings, each with 5mg THC, using 100ml of Veda Warrior Infused Olive Oil.
To adjust the dose:
-
For 2.5mg THC per serving, use 50ml of infused oil and substitute the remaining 50ml with regular olive oil.
-
Always whisk thoroughly to ensure even distribution.
Start with a small serving, especially for those new to edibles. Allow 1–2 hours to gauge effects before consuming more.
