How do you boil salt and sand to separate them?

Salt will dissolve in water, and the more heat you add, the more salt you can dissolve, i.e. boiling the water. Sand however, is not water soluble, therefore, it will not dissolve. Let the water boil and dissolve the salt, then drain the water over a semi-permeable cloth so the sand is trapped and the water (and salt) drains through.


What method will you use to separate salt and sand?
