My biggest complaint about hand-made dish soap is that it's not good at cutting grease. Since I don't have a dishwasher this is critical for me. I kinda stumbled on the fact that bleach is a great oil cutter since I do use it on occasion to sterilize.
What happened is that rather than waste the bleach water I added more hot water and some dish soap. My soap dishes came out squeaky clean. I prefer to wash up when I 'm done making rather than wait a day and I always have some dishes that are are greasy from set up. Using plastic, well need I say more?
So I'm going to try making some LS for dishes with a small amount of bleach added for that extra umph. Not a lot mind you so a person would still be able to wash dishes by hand.
I will report back....
