A mod for almonds

I love these:

Heaven help me, they sort of remind me of Sun Chips or Cheezits, I loved those, too.  And usually these kind of snacks come in tiny expensive packages.  But when a snack is at Costco and a bag weighs almost 3 pounds, it's hard to stop !

But almonds are somewhat healthier than Sun Chips or Cheezits EXCEPT for all the smoky salt !

  

the salt is visible

I used to get unsalted, roasted almonds along with the Smokehouse almonds and blend them, but unsalted is harder to find.

But here is a mod for these almonds: put them about 8 oz. at a time into an old peanut container.  And then shake like you are the Maraca person in a band.  After a while you should see salt accumulating in the bottom.  Transfer the nuts to another jar and if they are de-salted enough, quit.  Otherwise continue shaking in the other peanut jar.  Keep going until the salt has been mostly removed:

A little beat up but less salt

They still taste fine to me just not as salty.
