- 1). Fill a sauce pan with distilled water and place it on the stove top on medium to high heat.
- 2). Heat the water until it is very hot, but not necessarily boiling, and then turn the stove off.
- 3). Add salt to the hot water one spoonful at a time while stirring the salt and water solution in the pot with a wooden spoon.
- 4). Watch as the salt dissolves, and then add more salt until the salt crystals stop dissolving.
- 5). Wait a few minutes to see if the undissolved salt eventually does dissolve. If it does, add a little more until the salt is absolutely not dissolving any further.
- 6). Let the salt water solution cool and allow any further salt settle out of the solution.
- 7). Pour the salt water into a mason jar, being careful not to include any of the undissolved crystals at the bottom of the pot. Seal the jar and store.
