1. Organize and prepare equipment and work area.
2. Grind nuts in grinder, chopper, blender, or food processor, Add the salt and grind again until smooth and creamy.
3. Pack into hot jars to within 1 inch of top, trying to pack so that no air bubbles remain. Remember to use a non metal tool for packing.
4. Wipe tops and threads of each jar with a damp clean cloth.
5. Put on lids and screw bands as manufacturer directs.
6. Process in a boiling water bath, 1 hour for both ½ pints and pints. Check water bath about every 10 to 15 minutes and add additional boiling water, if necessary, to keep jars covered with 1 to 2 inches of water.
