#tallowsoap

Today is tallow rendering day. An unglamorous, but vital step in making this wonderful soaping ingredient. We picked up about 20 lbs of this gorgeous beef suet from @markegardfamilygrassfed and will be refining it into tallow for our Loma Mar, Big Basin and Bonny Doon bars. You can already tell its going to make excellent bars by its beautifully crumbly texture. Love being able to use local raw ingredients like this and we're always so grateful to have such high quality goods just down the road. #grassfedbeeftallow #tallowsoap #soapsofinstagram #soapmaking #rawingredients (at Pescadero, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZVKOnnPWYV/?utm_medium=tumblr

Green Valley bars have been added to the shop (link in bio). Featuring our extra sudsy tallow base made from local, grass fed beef tallow rendered in house, and an earthy, smokey tomato leaf scent. The rich sudsy lather on these bars is perfect for cleaning up after a hard days work in the garden or on the farm. Thanks to @simmsorganics for the absolutely gorgeous early girl dry farmed tomatoes pictured here with our soap. Find them and the rest of their organic locally grown produce at the Thursday afternoon farmers market in downtown Pescadero. 2-6 through September. #coldprocesssoap #soapsofinstagram #tomatoleaf #tallowsoap #handmadesoap #californiamade #pescadero #coastsidehomegoods https://www.instagram.com/p/CSz8Lldv_oi/?utm_medium=tumblr

Spent the morning pouring soap. We finally were able to source some out of stock ingredients for our Purisima Creek Iris & Clay bars, and replenished stock of our Pescadero Oatmeal and Honey bars and Bean Hollow Sea Salt & Kelp bars. Did you we make our own kelp powder from wild foraged kelp? #coldprocesssoap #handmadesoaps #handpouredsoap #tallowsoap #oliveoilsoap #oatmealsoap #seasaltsoap #naturalingredients #coastsidesoaps #pescadero https://www.instagram.com/p/CB9AIfogBRF/?igshid=csazhpspkuyo

Homemade tallow soap This is my first try at tallow soap and I think it worked ok, it's pretty and it's sudsy, but I won't know for sure for six more weeks when it's done curing. It's the same basic process as lard based soap. I went with a 5% superfat so it should be nicely moisturizing. As usual there are no extras that might mess with sensitive skin. No colors, no scents, no essential oil. Just good old fashioned soap. Because it's just a very basic soap it's good for nearly anything, hands, body, hair, dishes, laundry, feeding to the dog to mess with the neighbors. Maybe next time I'll try a castile soap, I think I can handle that. Have a great day my friends and wash your hands. #poverty_hill #homestead #soaping #homemade #tallowsoap #slowliving #keeperoftheoldways #homemaking #homecraft #homecrafts #simpleliving #washyourhands #ruralpa #countryliving #makeitdontbuyit #myhappyplace (at Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-23IQ7gwWt/?igshid=1mitvnejs7c06
