Airtight jars

For resting snuff while it develops, and for storing it afterwards.

What to look for

Glass jars with good seals (Kilner or mason style) are ideal. Snuff can rest sealed for anything from a day to several weeks, and the flavour and moisture settle during that time.

Some recipes then have you open the jar for a few days so strong ammonia smells can fade. Fill jars near the top to limit the air inside, and label each one with the recipe and date.
