How to Extract Salt From Plants

There are some plants that can provide salt if care is taken to extract salt from them. One such plant is the hickory tree. If you know of any other good plants that are good for salt let me know please so I can add them here.

Salt extraction from hickory is pretty straight forward but is a lot of work for little payback by today's standards. In the future this just might be one of the most important pieces of survival knowledge that you could have.

To extract salt from hickory you need to gather up a bunch of hickory roots. Cut and crush the roots into as small of pieces as you can but not so small that you can't remove them later, either by hand or straining. Now place the roots in a pot and boil. Remove the roots before the water boils down so much that it starts to get thick. Continue to boil the water away and you will be left with a black substance. This is your salt. Enjoy!
