Key Takeaways

Understanding CBD Isolate in Cooking

CBD isolate is pure cannabidiol, which is great for cooking because it doesn't change how your food tastes. Hive Hempworks' USDA Certified Organic CBD Isolate works well for these recipes. It's easy to use - just mix it into oils or sauces to spread it evenly in your food. You can use CBD isolate in both sweet and savory dishes without changing their taste.

Recipe 1: CBD-Infused Herb-Crusted Salmon

This tasty salmon dish has healthy omega-3 fats and CBD, which might help you feel calm. The herb crust makes the fish taste even better. Adding CBD isolate to the herbs helps your body absorb it through the salmon's healthy fats.

• 1/4 cup mixed fresh herbs (like dill, parsley, and chives), finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Hive Hempworks CBD Isolate
