When my husbands parents were here, we went to visit the salt factory and made some salt. We were given pots with all the ingredients added, and we stirred and scraped the pot as the salt formed.
You can see the salt starting to form on the sides of the pot.
Once we were finished stirring, we took a spoon and smashed the salt and made it smooth.
We were given these delicious salt rice cakes to taste our salt on...very good!
Once we finished, we put our salt into a small pottery container to take home. It was a lot of fun to make, and surprisingly relaxing as we were stirring the salt.
I'll bet your kids loved doing this!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds interesting, making your own salt! Looks neat.
ReplyDeleteHi Alica and Tracey
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by.
It was fun, but only Grandma and I
made the salt. The kids went and ate
ice cream with dad and grandpa.
