New first in the ongoing quest for self sufficiency.
Homemade tallow soap.
Made from our first on farm processed beef.
I used the leaf fat from around the kidneys which is lovely buttery yellow in colour and much less beefy smelling.
If you don't have your own animals you can harvest tallow straight from your cooked meats by saving the juices in the pan after cooking or roasting meat or even making bone broth. Once the juices have cooled collect up the solid fat from the top. Or you could ask your butcher for the leaf fat and you might get lucky.
