Frances , you can use beef fat to make lye soap it will come out real yellow Hog fat or lard will be whiter i would think. i have seen some made from crisco shortening it is real white. the imporant thing is the amount of lye to fat ratio.. The real strong stuff will remove all dirt and two layers of skin, if you have to use it. it sure makes the washing come out clean , and has its own smell. don Frances Simmons <fs.rooster@verizon.net> wrote: Thanks Don, I thought it was por fat, but wasn't sure.
