In the form of waste to collect and extract seeds from them because the goats digested without their outer shell because they are indigestible, while the nucleus remains polished without crust. However, after the analysis showed that the argan oil extracted from the fruits eaten by goats is contaminated with a germ called Brucella, the method was discontinued.

After the kernel is broken, the wood husks are removed and the almonds are heated or baked on the fire and then grinded with hand-made flours to grind the staff.
