Finished with this season growing, I tried to make flake from my harvest. I used almost all my harvest just to make one flake, because my leaves are very small. I get many midrib and smaller leaves that I feel a waste to throw away. So I decided to make a nasal snuff out of it. I just got a very nice baker grade vanilla essence that I planned to use as flavoring.
I need some help deciding my recipe for nasal snuff. I never tried nasal snuff before so I don't know what to expect. I planned to use Calcium Carbonate to help delivering nicotine as I read midrib has less nicotine than the lamina. Calcium Carbonate is what used traditionally here for Betel Chewing, as it help to release the alkaloid contained in betel nut. It also used for mixing with tobacco to be used as chewing tobacco. I also read that 1 grams of sodium carbonate to 100 grams tobacco is what advised for nasal snuff, but is it the same for calcium carbonate? And I think I need some salt for flavoring. Would these recipe work?
50 grams tobacco
0.5 grams calcium carbonate
Pinch of salt
A few drop of vanilla essence
Should I toast the tobacco? Or should I cook them? Should I add some sugar of any kind? Sorry for posting too many question.
