Live Resin Olive Oil
Servings vary
Ingredients
⦁ 1 gram Live Resin(or any similar concentrate wax, shatter, etc..)
⦁ 1/4 cup Olive Oil

Directions
1.  Preheat oven to 230-240 degrees F.
2.  Place gram of live resin in the bottom of a mason jar.  Seal jar and place jar in a small shallow baking dish to help handle it easier.

4.  Remove from the oven and allow it to cool 15-30 minutes.  Preheat oven to 230-240 degrees F.
5.  Once the jar is cooled enough to handle open the jar and add the Olive Oil.  Reseal Jar and put back in the baking dish and back in the oven and set a timer for 2 hours.  Remove from the oven every 30 minutes and swirl the jar a bit to help mix and combine.
6.  After the 2 hours remove from oven and allow to cool before opening.

Live Resin/Unmedicated Aioli
2 servings and 3/4+ cups unmedicated Aioli
Ingredients
⦁ 1 Egg Yolk(room temperature)
⦁ 1 teaspoon cool Water
⦁ 2 teaspoons Lime Juice
⦁ 1 teaspoon Mustard
⦁ 1/2-3/4 cup mild Olive Oil
⦁ 6-8 cloves Roasted Garlic
⦁ 2 1/2 teaspoons Live Resin Olive Oil
⦁ 1/4 teaspoon Salt
⦁ 1/4 teaspoon Pepper

Directions
1.  Whisk the Egg Yolk, Water, Lime Juice, a pinch of Salt and the teaspoon of Mustard together well until it becomes slightly thickened.
2.  Slowly whisk in a few drops at a time and allow to combine or emulsify together before adding more.  Once the aioli begins to form and look mayonnaise-like you can add the oil in larger amounts.
3.  After adding about 1/2 cup of Olive Oil remove 1-2 teaspoons of the aioli mixture into a separate small bowl.  Whisk the Live Resin Olive Oil into the mixture in the small bowl as well as 1-2 smashed Roasted Garlic cloves.  Season with a small amount of salt and pepper.  Taste and reseason as necessary.
4.  In the large bowl add the remaining Roasted Garlic Cloves smashed and whisk in with the remaining Olive Oil slowly until fully combined.  Season with remaining Salt and Pepper.  Taste and adjust as necessary.

Seared Tuna Sandwiches

1.  Marinate tuna steaks in Black Pepper and Soy Sauce at least one hour in the refrigerator.  If they are only partially covered turn them ever 20-30 minutes.
