100% Tallow (Hot Process)
Recipe Instructions
Hot process:
- Melt oils over double boiler and add pigment/mica colouring that you want to be uniformly distributed (try to keep under 100F)
- Reserve 25g of olive oil, and mix with EO and FO.
- Optionally: reserve about 25g of olive oil and mix in mica for streaking in later
- Mix lye & water in separate container.
- At 130/140F incorporate lye water and oils together.
- Emulsify with stick blender and bring to trace.
- With the double boiler at a low setting: allow the emulsified mixture to gel and saponify without going past 212F (past 212F and it will erupt/boil)... this will take time, about an hour or more.
- Once "vaseline" stage is reached: add sodium lactate and mix (the soap should loosen up a bit)
- Add the reserved EO-FO/olive oil mixture and mix in well to distribute
- If adding mica colour now: pour in the reserved olive oil/mica mixture and stir minimally to create streaks
- Transfer to a loaf mold using a silicone spatula
