Hempwich Butter

Ingredients:

1 1/4 cups hulled hempseeds
2 tablespoons hemp oil or olive oil
1 small clove garlic
1 teaspoon soy sauce
sea salt and pepper

Directions:

Toast the seeds lightly. Once they have cooled, grind one cup of the seeds in a coffee grinder or blender.

Combine the rest of the unground hulled seeds, the ground seeds, oil, and pressed garlic in a small bowl, and blend them thoroughly with a fork.

Season with soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Add more oil for a softer consistency.

Store the butter in a glass jar in the refrigerator.

You'll find it tastes great on bagels or bread.

Note: Another way to produce nut butter is to grind toasted or untoasted hulled seeds in a Champion juicer.
