making soap without caustic soda

I am trying to make organic soap without caustic soda.

I have ash from Salosa Keli and I would like to know what is the size of the kerosene tin and do I have to add the ' 2 3/4 kg of washing soda'

Thank you
Dalia

Hi Dalia,

In order to make this soap recipe without using caustic soda you have to follow the recipe as is, starting with washing soda, the lime and the ash which you will need to soak overnight.

Yes, you need to add the washing soda, this is part of the recipe, and an important part at that. Without it, this soap recipe won't work.

An old kerosene tin holds 4 gallons of liquid. If you don't have a kerosene tin, then use any other container that will hold 4 gallons, and then use accordingly.
