place lid on and let cool till its warm.
Melt 1 (3#) can shortening and let cool down when temp reaches 98*
then add lye mixture slowly while stiring untill thickens, and when it traces you can add whatever scent you would like !! pour into pan and let set for 12-24 hours cut into bars and cure for 2-3 weeks enjoy!!!
