Liquid Detergent

I have been getting emails asking about a liquid detergent instead of powdered. I don't like the mess of liquid but some folks believe it does a better job of dissolving and washing cold water loads. So here it is. I would love your feedback.

LIQUID DETERGENT

2 gallons of hot water
1 bar of soap (I prefer Ivory)
2 cups baking soda

Directions:

1. Melt bar soap in a pan with just enough boiling water to cover. Stir until the soap is completely melted. Do this on a low setting.

2. In a large pail or bucket pour in 2 gallons of hot water. Add the melted soap to this and gently stir.

3. Add in the baking soda and stir well.

Use 1/2 cup per average load. Use more of your detergent mix for over average or heavily soiled loads of laundry.
