Sources
- The regional sections summarise the pages on each preparation and on Cannabis in Khmer cuisine and Cannabis in Acehnese cuisine, and cite the same works for the same statements.
- Vladimir Dal's dictionary of Russian is cited from the online text at slovardalja.net, which follows the first edition and gives no printed page.
- The Caribbean section rests on Rubin and Comitas (1975) and on Comitas's chapter in Cannabis and Culture of the same year; both report the same fieldwork, so they are one witness.
- The Aceh section reports press interviews, a briefing of the Transnational Institute and a 2024 study. None of them is a recipe source from before 2000, so every statement about cannabis in Acehnese dishes is attributed.
Left out
- Latvian hemp butter (kaņepju sviests), toasted hemp seed ground with butter and salt and eaten with rye bread, is described in a 2014 booklet on Latvian foods. It waits for an older ethnographic or cookbook source.
- Lithuanian hemp milk and hemp curd are described only in a modern encyclopedia and the press.
- Dal's dictionary also has konopliana, hemp milk for whitening meatless cabbage soup, and the Kursk maslenka, a lump of pounded hemp seed eaten as a treat. Each is a single dictionary line, and maslenka is also the ordinary word for a butter dish.
- Gorohlianyky are not a hemp dish: the 1913 recipe is of pea flour. See Talk:Khomy.
- Industry presentations claim a hemp-flower tortellini of 1884, a soup of the monks of Tegernsee and a hemp recipe in Platina (1475). None gives a reference, so none is used.
- The ground seed given with bread or porridge to Sotho children being weaned is on Traditional medicine, where Watt's account of it as a medicinal use belongs.
