Soothing Chamomile
Solid Soap · NaOH · 100 g oil load · 8% superfat · 3 views · 0 saves
Olive oil has been infusing with turmeric, smoked paprika, and a 1" long, 1/4" wide, piece of cinny for color and, maybe, slight fragrance, for almost 3 months as of the writing of this recipe (1/20/20). Maybe it'll be a gift for my honorary nephew or niece when it's born. I'll put the gift in Carlos' hands when I next see him to pass it on. Nta: I also used a strong chamomile infusion instead of water for lye solution. Although there was no sugar present, I froze the infusion without thinking, and it was a good thing because it meant the solution cooled faster and didn't change color when added to the fats. The soaps are a light honey/tan color still.
