PRIMITIVE SKILLS; Natural Salt Making with Sea Water

[@ithulah]

I think you likely added some already made salt to your evaporation pond. It takes a very long time to evaporate that much salt out, and you said it was overcast weather. You could have taken the remaining salt by weaving a fairly tight basket and lining it with a bit of clay if needed. You can always clean salt by desolving it back into water when you get home, then boil it briefly with egg white. The protein in the egg will clean the salt, and you can spoon the dirty scum off the top. Then you pour off the extremely salty water into a new container, leaving any sand and clay on the bottom. Leave it alone to dry and crystallise. Then you'll have bright white salt with no grittiness. Good to see you at the sea.

@@Saerkal You get less than 0.1kg of salt per liter of sea water even in the highest salinity locations. He is showing several kg of dried salt in his little ring there, which means either he dumped and evaporated hundreds of liters of sea water there, and it didn't rain a single time for months during the rainy season...or he went down the street and bought a bag from one of Vietnam's many sea salt farms for a buck and poured it into his ring.

The lack of video content and information / details of how long the process takes shows 2 meals, 2 nights really leaves the viewer confused and in doubt of whether his effort to demonstrate this primitive skill was genuine. Sad… i feel like the quality of his video content is slipping from what it use to be, instead of increasingly improvement. If Duong is the one doing all of the videography for both his and his wife’s KZbin channels, he may have a lot less time to concentrate on good content for videos for his own channel.

The chainsaw was his wife, not him. He was injured and she did her best. And NO SALT DOESN'T ALWAYS MAKE A RING. They're several ways to harvest salt. Salt is harvested in coastal areas by using sand to evaporate the water by raking it in the sun then washing the sand then boiling the water out. He's doing a great job, just because YOU don't know all the different ways to render salt doesn't me he's wrong. It might have been more polite to just say " I wish you could show us every step in more detail next time."

I’ve collected salt from sea water and it fun to do. I evaporated my sea water on a stove and whilst I did get a lot more salt than I thought I’d get, the amount you got seems a bit much tbh. You could have heated water in a pot on your camp fire and d refilled the pot as you went and got a good amount of salt.

The process starts at 9am till all the way to 5 - 6pm with intense sun light. Method use in this video and in my village area are called Condensation and Crystallisation. It is truly amazing to see it Crystallised every hour back and forth. Is not fake if u do it personally really, remember, INTENSE SUNLIGHT! (Means that day must be HOT AF to do it)

@@chrislam9820 Its not that the methode is fake, but i doubt the amount of salt he made in one day, a cloudy day without intense sunlight and he had to build the "salt pan" first. Even on a day with heavy duty work on the lathe, were the water in the tank reaches temperatures of 40-50°C (and more in the direct work area and chip bin) i evaporate only around 120 liter of water. And with around 3,5% salt in sea water, he needs to evaporate around 300 pots of water, asuming the pot holds 2-3 liter thats around 600-900 liter, to get that amount of salt.

[@pillowwantan3226]

It might be a good idea to make a traditional, large fireplace with a chimney in your bedroom back at the farm. Just to have a heat source in the bedroom during the winter, when you go to sleep. Would be good to make it safe, to prevent the fire from spreading in the house and smoking up the room. Good job on the sea salt, looks great!!! I am also surprised at the amount of sea salt, so good job on that! Don't forget to wash it from impurities when you get back home, there's a lot of dirt in that salt. If you want to prevent yourself from getting sick, make sure to wash the salt! Also, did you use the salt for the crab and clams? Very excited for you, learning how to traditionally make salt. Now you know what to do when you need more :) Salt is very useful in that you can cure many foods for long term storage. It can enhance the flavor of your foods and is an essential mineral for us~ I hope that you can bring back and store lots of salt back at your farm, to be used and experimented with often! Try adding salt to fish soup, to chicken soup, fried veggies, fried eggs. You can also make baked potatoes with salt and green onions! Or even mashed potatoes! Maybe one day you could get an animal that can produce milk? And it might be time to make some sugar! But, you don't eat sweet food a lot... Still, maybe you could make some jam with boiled sugar and berries or boiled sugar and fruits. Will you be sharing salt with your wife and kids? I'm sure they'd love to try out new recipes with the homemade salt that their father and husband made :) Maybe instead of sugar, you could start looking into making oil. You will be able to make fried foods instead of soups and grilled foods, it could make your diet more diverse. Olive oil, coconut oil, rice bran oil, palm oil, sesame oil, peanut oil, soybean oil, sunflower oil, fish oil... All of these can also add more flavor to your foods and provide more nutrients to your meals. Should be relatively easy to make. Most oils come from crushing and grinding the ingredient they come from (grind down some peanuts into a fine paste and you will get peanut butter. Separate the crushed peanuts from the liquid oil and now you have oil.) It might also be a good idea to try to harvest some seaweed (laver). Not all seaweed is edible, but if you can identify the good ones, you can also use seaweed to provide more flavor to your dishes. LOVE the fact that you went to the sea to get the salt. The scenery is absolutely magnificent. The fact that you went to a whole new location just to get one of the ingredients that you have been wanting to acquire is REALLY cool. Would love to see more of you traveling around your country and learning and hunting for things to improve your farmland.

[@Scott-i9v2s]

Note: *primitive* skills are not necessarily *traditional* . To me "primitive" means much less use of advanced technologies. BTW, despite tasting sweet, bananas contain a high percentage of salt. But probably not high enough to be practical with primitive skills. Lưu ý: các kỹ năng *nguyên thủy* không nhất thiết phải là *truyền thống* . Với tôi, “nguyên thủy” có nghĩa là ít sử dụng các công nghệ tiên tiến hơn. Mặc dù có vị ngọt nhưng chuối lại chứa tỷ lệ muối cao. Nhưng có lẽ chưa đủ cao để có thể thực hành với những kỹ năng thô sơ.

For everyone saying he’s being fake.. technically he never said anything about doing this in a day. You assumed it. But if you pay attention to detail, even his harvest in the basket is different. The crab is different and the big oyster is gone. As for the amount of salt, he did keep adding water in it. Depending on the heat, it takes about 5-10 days for salt water to crystalize in Vietnam.

It's sad to see something that seems quite easy to do being done through cheating :( To get that much salt he would have to vaporize a lot of seawater since only 0.04% - 0.38% is salt. Boiling sea water isnt really that complicated...Im disappointed.

[@AVerdi-bc1hn]

Actualy no. Seewater has 35g/l… that’s 3,5% quite a lot

[@ivoivic2448]

you don't need to boil sea water to extract salt. stick a grain of salt into a saturated salt water solution, see what happens over a period of time. the video is deceptive on how long it took, but you'd be dumb to think you have to boil water to get salt.

[@OlegZhurbenko]

The process of salt production is called evaporation. One way to calculate it is as follows: 1. The average salt content in seawater is approximately 3.5%. 2. Therefore, 1 liter of seawater contains 0.035 kg of salt. 3. To obtain 1 kg of salt, you need to evaporate (1 / 0.035) liters of seawater. 4. This is approximately 28.57 liters of seawater per 1 kg of salt.

[@l3d-3dmaker58]

yes, and this looks to be around 5kg of salt, he could have done it legitimately as it's only 142 liters of water but considering this was an overcast day and did it in just one afternoon it's sadly fake, method is real tho, one could even build a heated pan with fire underneath to evaporate really quickly and do this in 3-4 days

[@Scott-i9v2s]

That is why any *evaporation* method other than via sunlight is, in the current state of the world, simply too expensive to be practical.

Right, I'm 4 minutes in to this video and I wanna tell you how I did it. First, filter out all the physical contaminents out of the water (sand, silt etc). Then I just boiled it down... voilà, sea salt. You could do a lot more refining, solving the salt in fresh water, filter then boil again. The most surprising thing I found is that this method actually produces salt that is saltier than store bought salt (?).

[@TheScaryName]

...your method obviously is more economic, as it uses nature instead of an active heat source 👍

How are you Duong? I hope you are fine. God bless!!

[@jamesculp3622]

Amazing! I had no idea you could get that much salt in that short of time. You could harvest there for a long time. Thanks for sharing.

Quisas no sea la sal de un día

[@kaitlynlsari681]

You can't. I love this channel but I know about salt making, and this is artificially staged. This result has been achieved by adding package refined table salt until the water is supersaturated and letting the moisture dry a little. Nothing looks correct during the process. unfortunately. As a long time fan I'm disappointed he'd fabricate this but it's definitely fabricated by adding salt. To make this much salt for an area that size would take several weeks. That is a lot of salt

[@kaitlynlsari681]

Lol it seems that the English translation wasn't what was intended, Duong was trying to show the primitive process on a cloudy day😂

Mon père n'avait expliqué comment faire des salifères de différentes façons, dont celle que vous nous montrez, très intéressant, merci de se partage de connaissance...

In Tibet, salt is produced in the same way on large terraces,

That’d take months to do this, sorry but 18:32 that is 100% faked and staged. I’m so disappointed!!

[@alicedelosrios3829]

Very nice video woow now have salt the food taste better 😋 👍👌

[@Jaymunnie]

Now that you have access to salt, there are numerous things you can do with it. I would strongly suggest that you continue to improve your cloth weaving skills, and work towards weaving cheesecloth. You are in the forest, you are mostly alone, and if you should ever suffer a cut or injury, you will need a very fine cloth with which you can apply to the affected area to stop bleeding. Having salt will provide you with a means to create a simple saline solution to keep your cuts or wounds clean, and having something like cheesecloth will act as a bandage for first aid. You have secured food, water, and shelter. Now it is time to secure medicine.

I'm disappointed, I thought this channel was a rare one not to fake the results but now it is officially cheating...

[@TizonaAmanthia]

Hello, Duong, I noticed a few episodes ago you had reduced the font size of your captions. i do enjoy reading them, but my vision is not the best. I did prefer the larger size. is that something you can change again, to make it bigger? it's still readable, but a bit larger would be more comfortable for me., thank you!

Hola amigo. Lo felicito, eres genial. Esa sal que obtuviste es de excelencia calidad. Saludos cordiales desde Costa Rica..

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

thank you so much

[@LASSAKRI-Abdelali]

Yes, this is the primitive method of extracting salt..but it requires a long time and painstaking effort..you had to evaporate the water by boiling it over a fire. The water will evaporate the remaining salt in a quick and effective way.

[@vitorgalati7121]

Welcome to sea my friend Duong. Não ligue para as críticas, pois falso não é. Na verdade, a obtenção de Sal grosso ou sal primário, se dá pela evaporação pela ação do Sol. Você está no caminho certo. Aqui no Brasil, fazemos desta forma. Mas você deve fazer piscinas bem rasas, para evaporação mais rápida. Um forte abraço a você e sua família. Um beijo no querido povo Vietnamita. Bangu RJ Brasil .

Guys its not fake ... As long as no rain you can do it with the sun .. But its more longer process than boiling sea water..

Me impresiona la manera en que obtuvo la sal, puede llevar una tela delgada y después agregar el agua para después recolectar la sal, saludos desde la Ciudad de México 🇲🇽

[@muhammadsahfarnaoma6225]

for every one that said this is fake.. yes.. i think every one know it when see it.. but we should know.. that mr duong make this video to share.. how to get salt from sea water in primitive way... that the meaning of this video.. if mr duong want some salt.. i think he can buy it on market.. just scrollnthe video list of his chanel.. and u will see a video when he build electric generator for lamp.. there is big market there..

Что ж, жаль конечно, но с солью такой же обман, как и с металлами... А ведь мог просто по-настоящему несколько горшков морской воды вскипятить, чтобы получить настоящую морскую соль, пусть и совсем чуть-чуть. Всяко лучше, чем такой неправдоподобный обман.

[@RussianKrym]

Да не говорите! На кого это рассчитано, даже туземцы знают, как правильно добывать соль. С каждым разом развод всё очевиднее. Становится обидно, что за идиотов считают. Первый раз поставил дизлайк к видео на этом канале.

Можно еще кубики сахара к пальме приклеить 😂

[@PaleGhost69]

While you did make it right, it's disappointing that you cheated for the final product for the first batch. Even at 100% collection, that small spot would've only made enough to fill a small pot that would fit in one hand. With how much water and time it takes, I get it. However your rules are normal source first then cheat to aquire more. It should've been like the lime where you only got a little bit the first time and then you could get baskets on baskets next video. It also doesnt help that sea salt is crusty and solidified when done this way whereas yours is little more than dry rice. To create salt that granulated needs constant motion while its evaporating to prevent a large crystal forming. As much as i enjoy your content, this one is bad. I wouldve rather seen you boil it if you were going to cheat because at least we wouldnt be able to tell the difference without closely examining it.

It becomes more and more obvious that he cuts corners since the fish pond

[@TheMixxon2]

@@wolf310iiwhat did he do with the fish pond ?

[@wolf310ii]

@@TheMixxon2 It was just suddenly there

[@PaleGhost69]

​@TheMixxon2 after he unlocked concrete, he emptied the pond and built concrete walls between videos. He's consistently followed the rule "unlock by doing it all one time, buy resources after" which is good for content creation as it keeps the ball rolling without wasting the real amount of time to source it the primitive way, especially considering that we've already striped most of the surface metals. The only other time I've had a problem with this kind of embellishing was acquiring the livestock that is obviously domesticated already. He acts like they're wild when he could've just bartered with his own produce and handmade equipment, like the water turbine.

[@TheMixxon2]

@@PaleGhost69 yeah, I agree. I still tho enjoyed the water turbine idea, because he paid for it with money he earned selling his own produce, and in any case I don’t think he could have managed to manufacture his own, so I think it was ok to buy it. But buying pigs was not necessary, they could have tamed wild pigs as with chickens, and the chainsaw should stay on Duong’s and his wife’s little hut there where they are building, off-screen, and that chainsaw should not appear on-screen :D But the cement yeah, probably they bought some. At least for me, the silver lining is that, if he does not want to show and hides this stuff, at least ye understands that this should be kept to a bare minimum as to avoid “breaking the fourth wall” as much as possible and this doesn’t become a casual recurring thing, so we can truly feel the vibe of the chanell where he builds everything just by himself completely !
