How to extract salt from plants

Coltsfoot salt is a “salt substitute” made by burning dried coltsfoot leaves (Tussilago farfara) and using the cooled ash to season food. It may taste mildly salty, but safety and correct plant ID matter, so keep it occasional and cautious.

Dry 8–12h; roll 3–4 leaves tight.

Burn on a plate; block wind; cool.

Crush; pinch-season.

Tussilago farfara — coltsfoot.

Pyrrolizidine alkaloids — liver-toxic compounds.

Ash — minerals after burning; varies.

Stat: Sodium limit <2,300 mg/day (USDA/HHS).

Who should NOT: pregnant/breastfeeding, kids, liver disease.

Skip if you can’t 100% ID it.

Would you try ash-salt?

Sources: NCCIH; FDA; USDA/HHS Dietary Guidelines.
