How to Make Washing Soda
Making your own washing soda is easy. However, for those who can buy them cheaply, then there would be no need to make it yourself.
Washing soda is a degreasing agent which can be used in dish detergent and laundry detergent. Making it requires only one ingredient: baking soda.
Here are the steps to make washing soda:
1. Preheat the oven to 390-400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius)
2. Evenly pour baking soda into a pan or tray that can be baked in an oven.
3. Bake for 1 hour.
4. Let cool and carefully pour into a container for future use.
Warning: Washing soda is somewhat toxic. Do not ingest. And keep out of the reach of children.
