    Source of Recipe

    recipezaar

    Recipe Introduction

    Inexpensive and works great. Clothes come out clean and soft. I grate the soap in my food processor.

    List of Ingredients

    1 bar bath soap, grated (your favorite brand or Fels Naptha works great)
    1 cup Super Washing Soda laundry detergent (a laundry booster)
    1/2 cup Borax
    Hot water

    Recipe

    Place grated soap in a pot.
    Cover with some water and simmer over medium heat until all soap is melted, stirring occasionally.
    Pour into 5-gallon bucket.
    Add washing soda and borax.
    Add enough hot water to almost fill the bucket.
    Stir well with a long spoon or stick.
    Let sit overnight to gel.

    Use 1-2 cups per load.

    (You can pour this into old detergent containers or leave in the bucket. Please cover with a lid if leaving in the bucket to protect children and pets.).
