I’ve been making this laundry soap at home for years, and I’ve also been meaning to share it for years. I have about three million things to do today (including make laundry soap) so why not now?
Ingredients.
4 cups washing soda
2 cups baking soda
1 cup Epsom salt
4 bars pure Castile lavender soap (you can use any scent you like!)
4 cups borax
Directions.
Using the grater attachment for your food processor, grate two bars of soap at a time. Transfer the grated bits to a large bowl. Once all the soap is grated, swap out the grater for your standard food processor blade. Return the soap to the processor and pulse until it’s blitzed and fine.
In a large bowl combine the washing soda, baking soda, Epsom salt, borax, and soap and stir until well combined.
Transfer to airtight jar(s).
Makes about 12 cups. I use about 1/8 – 1/4 cup of detergent per load depending on the size and how dirty the laundry is.
