This is a bit &#8216;special recipe, a little Christmas gift totally made with your own hands. My mom, since childhood, has always been prophesied what I\u2019ll become when grew up: the junk dealers. You know those trucks (actually I think are not so frequent on the streets, but when I was child they were everywhere) filled and filled with found objects of all kinds, from bicycle wheels to the chair of antiques, so overflowing to have chandeliers as pendants dangling on the road? Ok I&#8217;ve accomplished my destiny in a box where years and years of quite compulsive accumulation took place: ribbons, beads and various trinkets. So I wanted to tell you that my magic box was a godsend for the realization of these delicious jars. The idea was given me by my cousin Michelle who last year gave me a jar of this salt. I have to admit that it really lasted a short time, I used it almost on every dish I prepared \u00a0(is particularly great on meat and potatoes).<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The great thing is that really does not take much (and at no cost) to obtain a little present, good and useful. Simply recycle jam jars and show off your creativity. Another idea may be to accompany your gift with a personalized note to write on with a positive thinking, dedicated to the person who donated it. Good work (and Merry Christmas).<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5><strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">INGREDIENTS<\/span><\/strong><\/h5>\n<ul>\n<li>Salt q.s.
