I learned to make soap from my Mom, who had been doing it for years. She used her soap for everything from the bath to dishwashing. It takes some special equipment and a bit of time, but I find it is worth the trouble because the soap is so mild, and I like carrying on the tradition!
Here is what you need, if you'd like to try making some soap yourself.
RECIPE
38 oz rendered Beef Fat (tallow)
24 oz Olive Oil
24 oz Coconut Oil

I hope you enjoy your soap as much as I do mine. Let me know if you make a batch and how it turned out ! ~Sara
