HOMEMADE LYE SOAP 
5 lbs. (3 qts.) grease (bacon cooked in microwave renders clean grease needed for white soap)
1 can lye
1/2 c. Borax
1/2 c. ammonia
1 qt. water

Pour lye in pan, add quart of cool water slowly, stir with wooden spoon. Set aside to cool.

Then add Borax and ammonia, then slowly pour in kitchen grease and let set, but stir occasionally until consistency of honey. Then pour in containers.

Since microwave ovens vary in power, you may need to adjust your cooking time.
