INSTRUCTIONS
Use extreme caution in a well ventilated area when using lye. Never
use anything but a wooden spoon and stir carefully in one direction
only. Start with 10 cups melted fat and stir in 1 cup liquid bleach.
Dissolve 1 can lye in 6 quarts water and carefully add the fat and
bleach mixture. Stir thoroughly. Set 4 to 5 days, stirring frequently.
It will start out thin and watery but by the 4th or 5th day it will be
solid to the bottom of pot. Put on stove and melt, pour into molds and
cut when cool. It should dry for several months to cure. This is good
hand soap or laundry and is biodegradable. busted by sooz Recipe by:
