Fresh and ripe fruits are picked up by women as they fall from the tree between mid-June and mid-September. The nuts are stripped of their pulp, washed and prepared in boiling water for one hour and dried in the sun. The almond containing the fatty substance used to obtain the butter is removed. The almonds are crushed with a pestle, roasted and then brought to the mill for grinding: obtaining a brownish dough then churning step: the dough is kneaded and brewed with water to give a whitish dough. The butter is left to decant and filtered through a cloth. It is then discolored, filtered, deodorized, winterized and conditioned.
