Express Appetizer: 5 CBD Hash Recipes Ready in 10 Minutes

Introduction

The appetizer moment is often synonymous with relaxation and conviviality.
In Switzerland, the use of cannabidiol (CBD) products is allowed as long as the THC content remains below 1%, in accordance with the legal threshold set by art. 2, para. 5 LStup and the Ordinance on Narcotics Control – RS 812.121.1.
This framework allows you to enjoy the aroma of CBD Hash legally without the psychotropic effects associated with THC.

In this article, discover five appetizer recipes ready in ten minutes. The dosage should be adjusted according to your preferences and tolerances. Always choose lab-tested products with a certificate of analysis. According to the Consumer and Veterinary Affairs Service (SCAV) – activity reports, traceability and regular analyses of CBD products are strongly recommended to ensure safety and quality.

Why cook with CBD Hash?

  • Aroma & terpenes naturally present in legal hemp;
  • Originality of your appetizer bites;
  • Relaxing potential of cannabidiol (Citti et al., 2018, Cannabis and Cannabinoid Research).

The five recipes below can be made in a maximum of ten minutes with few ingredients.

1. Avocado Spread with CBD Hash

Ingredients (4 servings)

  • 1 ripe avocado
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 pinches of crumbled CBD Hash
  • 1 pinch of pepper
  • Optional: a few fresh coriander leaves

Preparation (≈ 10 min)

  1. Cut the avocado, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh.
  2. Mash it in a bowl.
  3. Add lemon, oil, salt, pepper.
  4. Crumble the CBD Hash very finely (≈ 3–5 mg CBD/portion) and incorporate it.
    Reminder: THC < 1% legal.
  5. Mix, spread, decorate with coriander.

Tip: a short decarboxylation (< 120°C) can enhance the aroma, but remains optional (Eichler et al., 2012, Trends in Pharmacological Sciences).
