Happy Monday! One silver lining for me during this

Happy Monday! One silver lining for me during this hunker down time is the amount of home-cooked meals I’ve enjoyed. While I can’t take all the credit (or even most – my hubby is pretty great) I did make one of Denali Dreams’ favorite recipes the other day: Red Cooked Fish. See the second picture for our recipe. Have you tried it? What are some of your favorite quarantine-time recipes?

Step 5 - The Final Step: Wrapping!
Wrapping is a crucial step in the life of a bar of soap and the wrapper must find the perfect balance between keeping the paper snug without tearing it. This requires an immense attention to detail as well as dexterity.
Each of our Denali Dream's soap has its own paper and label; in essence, each soap has its own unique personality. Each soap is polished and any rough edges are smoothed away, ensuring you unwrap the perfect bar every time. Square soaps are wrapped purely by hand while ovals are wrapped by hand with the help of a custom-made pleating machine.
Viola! Your next beautiful bar of soap is born. 📸 @ardhachandrasana .

Step 4: Cutting. After the soaps sit for 2 days, they are ready to be cut. First, they get removed from their molds. The square bars start as a large sheet cake of soap, which then gets cut into 4 logs. Each log gets "groomed" with a carrot peeler, and then cut a second time into bars with a wire cutter. The bars get groomed one more time to remove the rest of the sharp edges, and then they get set on a tray to cure. Soaps loose about 20% of their moisture content in the first 30 days, so they need to sit for a month to harden up...otherwise they'll dissolve too quickly in the shower.
The oval soaps have a similar process - they get sliced into bars on the wire cutter and then groomed to smooth out the edges. Each one gets its own unique stamp. 📸 @ardhachandrasana .

Step 3: Pouring. Once we have added the superfat, scent and colorants, the soap is ready to be poured into molds. It gets taken off of the mixer and distributed across all of the tubes. You'll notice these tubes have no plastic liners - we're working on becoming plastic free! After all of the tubes are full, they're gently tapped and shaken to remove any air bubbles, and then they get covered with several insulating blankets to keep in the heat as they continue to go through the chemical process of becoming soap. They will remain tucked in for 2 days.
When the soaps have been put to rest, we record all of the data about each individual batch of soap so we know exactly what happened that day. 📸 @ardhachandrasana .

Step 2: Mixing. Once the oils and the lye solution reach the proper temperature, they get put on the mixer. They will mix for anywhere from 20 minutes to 2 hours.
While the soap is mixing, we weigh out the unique scent blends for each batch, any colorants or additives (like coffee grounds, herbs, spices, etc.) and superfat. A superfat is a small amount of extra oil added into the soap to add moisturizing properties as well as to bond with any extra, free-floating lye.
When the soap turns opaque, thickens and increases in temperature the chemical reaction of saponification (when the mixture turns into soap) takes place. This is when all of the oil molecules combine with the lye molecules to make soap and the by-product, glycerin. Now for the fun part: at this stage we add in the scent, colorants and superfat.

Step 1: Setting up. There is a lot to get ready when you're making soap! First, we weigh out all of the oils which go in each batch of soap. Most soaps get several pounds of tallow, coconut oil, palm oil and olive oil. Some get other oils, like castor oil or avocado oil. We melt the oils together for each batch. While the oils are melting, we weigh out the lye (sodium hydroxide) and create a solution by mixing it with distilled water. In the large picture, you see Ben checking the temperature of the solution (in the milk jugs) to make sure it's just right.
When the pot of oil and the lye solution have both reached the right temperature, they get added to a 5-gallon bucket and put on the mixer. In the pictures, you can see the melting oil in the pot, temperature checking of oil in the pot, temperature checking of the lye solution, and the adding of all ingredients to the mixer. .
