Cooking tips

Maximum heat is non-negotiable — wok hei only happens above 500°F.
Fresh wide noodles from Asian markets are irreplaceable here.
Add a splash of vinegar with chili flakes on the side, Thai-style.

Why this pairing works

Caryophyllene — in your strain and on your plate

The only terpene that also activates the body's CB2 receptors, caryophyllene brings warm, peppery depth. It loves bold, savory, spicy food—peppercorn steak, aged cheeses, curries.
