Recipes built around the same terpene story.
Cannabis Tarte Tatin
Apples caramelized in butter and sugar, baked under a blanket of puff pastry, then inverted to reveal a burnished crown. Cannabis-infused butter in the caramel lends limonene's bright top notes to the deep toffee base.
Chirashi Sushi Bowl
A jewel box of sashimi-grade fish scattered over cannabis-seasoned sushi rice. Limonene's citrus spark lifts the clean oceanic flavors, while a yuzu-ponzu drizzle ties every bite together.
Citrus Shrimp Street Tacos
Charred shrimp tossed in a bright orange-lime marinade, tucked into warm corn tortillas with infused crema. Limonene's natural ally is acidity—these tacos make every citrus note pop.
