Another Soap Maker
Dear Aunt Daisy, I have made soap for many years-now and on several occasions I had the same result as your correspondent "Just Soap." I discovered for myself that by simply adding some more water, one cup at a time, the soap rights itself. The cause of the curdling I do not know. Perhaps the soap has boiled too quickly with too quick evaporation of the water,. or there may have been an excess of lime*in the water. But I do know there was no sait in the fat I used. This remedy is most successful.
