so as mentioned in the snus thread
there is a recipe for kawai a chewable tobacco paste kinda similar to snus, made from green mapacho leaves

i gave it a go tastes really nice with a green tobacco salt flavour, with a nice strong tobacco kick

basically i washed the tobacco leaves, to get rid of any dirt etc.
shook of the water although the leaves were still wet then i layed them out on a pancake pan, and made a layer of tobacco leaves sprinkled salt over that, then layed more leaves over the top sprinkle a little more salt then repeated this until my leaves were all layed out in a pile wiht salt disperse in
i cooked it on the hotplate over a low heat, after a while i turned it over and let it cook more from that side the tobacco gets steamed in the pile, eventually i compacted it and made a cake out of the leaves, when i felt it was done i removed and cut into strips i then mashed it up with a mortar and pestle then made it into a block, and am now jsut drying it out some in the oven in a low heat, so far it tastes good and has a nice tobacco taste.

thought i would share
