Here is the recipe:
Ingredients
- Super Washing Soda – 7 oz (2/3 cup)
- Baking Soda- 1.5 oz (3 Tbsp)
- Liquid Castile soap – 1/2 cup, any scent –
- Water– 5 cups, divided
- Bring 5 cups of water to a boil.
- Pour washing soda into a large glass bowl then slowly stir in 2 cups of boiling water until washing soda is completely dissolved.
- Add one tablespoon of baking soda at a time and stir well to combine. The mixture will thicken as baking soda is added until it is a pudding-like texture.
- Stir in ½ cup Castile soap until well combined. Slowly stir in remaining 3 cups of boiling water.
- Cool to room temperature, the mixture will separate while cooling.
- Combine separated mixture by blending or whisking until smooth. (Tip: Pour the mixture into two quart size Mason jars before cooling then screw on a blender bottom to easily blend until smooth.)
- Store liquid detergent in a glass bottle ( I use a 1 gallon vinegar bottle). Use 1/3 cup per load of laundry.
I got this recipe from Brendid.com.
Hi, Tracey! Thought I’d check out your blogspot. Lot’s of interesting things, here. I’ve used Dr. Bonner’s soap, but now I am buying the Market Basket version. It has the same ingredients, but half the price. I have used it for shampoo, general cleaner, and I’ve made great window cleaner with vinegar, lemon juice and, maybe some ammonia (not sure about the ammonia, though). Dr. Bonner’s soap has all those comments on it that are his attempt to unify all religion and philosophy. It really can’t be done. Jesus stands alone, outside and above all other “religious” figures. You simply can’t reconcile reincarnation with resurrection, can you? Anyway, I will be looking for your testimony.... Michael Walsh
ReplyDeleteI didn't know that MB had castile soap. I will look for it! I also make a general cleaner with it, never tried it as a shampoo though. I make my own glass cleaner, too. I agree with what you said about what's on the bottle of Dr.Bonner's. Thank you for commenting!
