Recovery and grinding.

The first step is to recover the salt from the water. You just pour the water into a shallow trough and let the water evaporate. It would be possible to boil away the water if you REALLY needed salt in a hurry, but letting the sun evaporate the water is free and has always worked well enough. This will give you salt crystals.

If you are looking for coarse salt, like Kosher salt or rock salt, this is as far as you need go. If you want to reduce it to small granules for salt shakers, you put the crystals in a grinding machine.
