Although
most of our dishes are washed in our dishwasher, we do have a lot of things
that need to be washed by hand… pots and pans, large serving dishes, some china
pieces, etc. To get the job done, I use my own homemade dish washing liquid. It’s easy to make, inexpensive, free of
chemicals and it works. All of the ingredients for this are on my Simple LivingShopping List.
Mama’s
Homemade Dish Washing Soap
1 cup of
water
½ cup
castile soap (I use Dr. Bronner’s baby mild unscented)
1 Tbsp
vinegar
5 drops of
essential oil
A note about
the essential oil: I like to use rosemary oil for this… but lemon, sage, lavender
or tea tree are all nice too… use whatever you like!
Mix all
together in an empty squeeze bottle or soap dispenser. Use as you would use any
other dish washing liquid. Keep in mind that this soap will not foam up the way
that synthetic dish liquids will, but it still works great!
