I purchased 53 g of organic bay leaves for under $3 from Rollin Oats. I have a Blusky machine that quickly (1hr) extracts the bay leaf into the olive oil. Since I was too lazy to cook the soap I make cold process and will cut tomorrow and age 9 months just in time for Christmas gifting! Thank you for this video. It truly inspired me to make olive oil soap again.
My mom just pruned her laurel tree and I have a couple of branches full of aromatic leaves, you inspired me to make this soap, so naturally beautiful, thank you for sharing your experience and creativity. (I love the crisp delicate sounds of your videos)
I made Aleppo type soap using Laurel berry oil and pure olive oil and let it cure for an entire year. I was about to not make It anymore but I have a client that buys it in bulk. Have an end piece in my bathroom and lathers pretty well thought. Maybe we don’t need to wait an entire year, yay. Beautiful soap and amazing video as always. Blessings
This soap is very close to Aleppo soap. I also infuse oliv oil with diverse dried herbs but I use an instant pot. I grind the herbs ( 150 grams per litre of oil) than put them in instant pot with the oil, choose yoghurt function and keep the oil inside overnight. Works very well.
I've been using my rice cooker as a double boiler for infusing oils, I also make yogurt with it on the "keep warm" setting, then when I melt oils I use the high setting. Never thought about using the instant pot, thanks for the hint!
Wow! I would have never thought to make my own laurel berry oil. The last time I bought some, it was very expensive. Can't wait to try to make my own. Question. Can I use this recipe to make using cp method? Thank you! Beautiful soap!
Good afternoon. As always you do the best recipe and video. I made my soap yesterday based on this recipe. The CP was ok but when I cooked the soap didn't have the right result. I'm trying again next week . If I don't cook the soap after how many weeks will be ready to use????
I use coffee grinder to grind dehydrated herbs and mushrooms :) .. as well I use DOTERRA essential oils ... they have many different kinds ........... :)
I have just been watching your videos and it feels so calming and therapeutic. I tried making my first batch of cp soap before I watched your video, it came out well but didn’t last for a long time while using. I was looking for the French soap version of Savon marseille as I love the texture and also I guess they last longer. Please share your views as I’m soo keen to know and would love to make an all Olive oil soap
Im going to try this. Ive made one batch of Aleppo style soap but with Laurel berry oil which I paid $50.00 for 16 oz weight. (Including delivery) most expensive 8 bars I've ever made. I will do this method next time. The color is perfect and I wonder if it still has that divine smell.
Love it🥰 have you considered/tried infusing sous-vide? If so do you see a difference between the 2 methods since sous-vide supposed to speed up the infusion process? Thks ❤
Thank you! Yes olive oil soap is a softer soap. It will benefit from a longer cure and when using it's important to have a well draining soap dish so that the soap can dry between uses
@@cathygilani4663 thank u for reply! However the video still says “use after 6weeks”, it confused me a bit….im a new soap marker and my first bunch will be ready in 2weeks, can’t wait for that. I didn’t do the steaming step(it’s the 1st time I see)
Have you tried using a coffee grinder instead of that pestle, ive also seen a hack someone used the stick blender upturned with shrink wrap over it and blitzed away😅
I would love to see a recipe for liquid soap in your channel one day❤
❤❤❤❤ ماشاء الله تبارك الله
I,M too 😊
Me too

Isn’t it laurel berry oil in Aleppo soap?
@@ismulders6129 yes, just noticed the typo, thank you. Mine is from Syria
Thank you so much! Your soap sounds great😊 I don't think it needs to cure for a whole year but it definitely benefits from a longer cure
@@tellervo. indeed, thank you

Can you show us comparison with all of your soaps? I think it will be wonderful to see different shades and colours of each herb😍
yeah little exhibition / display :)
انا معجبه جداً بكل شي تقدمينه وتعلمت منك الكثير وانا فخوره بالاتقان الذي وصلت له من بعد متابعتي لك ، شكراً من اعماق قلبي❤❤
I was never intested in soap before, but I got randomly recommended this video and now I want to try! Great music BTW.

Awesome🤗 Thank you! Yes you can make it cold process, i would recommend reducing the water a bit though
I just made your recipe, it came out absolutely fantastic! 😍Thank you. Should I leave them to dry for 6 months like olive oil soaps?
Awwww always love the aesthetic of your soaps!!!❤ sending love and support
You're so sweet thank you🤗💝
I love u so much ..i follow u i learn too much for made soap
Favorite soap in my country, Greece, for body and hair..❤
Yes that's great😊💝
I shall always love your soaps❤
You're so sweet💝
This soap is gorgeous! How do you know how much dried products to use to infuse in oil? Thank you! 🌷
Wow!!! Amazing!!! What is the salt for?

Thank you for your video i just finished pooring my soap into pringles can hhh thanks for the idea. The lather is very good.
Is Bay Laurel good for the skin and does it scent the soap? Thank you for another wonderful video!
I haven't researched it much but i think so, it does not give a long lasting scent. Thank you so much!
Beautiful color.
Thank you!
Thanks tellervo🎉❤
My pleasure💝
Im going to try this. Ive made one batch of Aleppo style soap but with Laurel berry oil which I paid $50.00 for 16 oz weight. (Including delivery) most expensive 8 bars I've ever made.
I will do this method next time. The color is perfect and I wonder if it still has that divine smell.
That's super expensive! The smell doesn't last long unfortunately🌷
Nice soap and I'm really suprised that pure olive soap lathered this much from the beginning. What's the secret please?
Thank you, i was surprised too, i think the secret is just working up the lather for some time
Love it🥰 have you considered/tried infusing sous-vide? If so do you see a difference between the 2 methods since sous-vide supposed to speed up the infusion process? Thks ❤
Thanks💝 I have never tried it but it would be interesting to see🤗
Leaves Can be processed in a blender, dry, a handful at a time. If you want power, then process in a coffee grinder.
That looks lovely
Thank you!
it’s such a a beautiful soap, one question, since it is made by 100% of olive oil, will it be too soft when use ?
Thank you! Yes olive oil soap is a softer soap. It will benefit from a longer cure and when using it's important to have a well draining soap dish so that the soap can dry between uses
May I know why steaming the soap after blending oil and water well? Anyone kindly advises? Tks in advance
This is basically a hot process soap that can be used safely as soon as it hardens in a day or two
@@cathygilani4663 thank u for reply! However the video still says “use after 6weeks”, it confused me a bit….im a new soap marker and my first bunch will be ready in 2weeks, can’t wait for that. I didn’t do the steaming step(it’s the 1st time I see)
For what skin type is it good? I love it and will try it for sure 😊
@@Christina_099
Thanks 😊
I love this soap 😍😍 its our favorite in the Middle East. Can I make the same formula in cold process? And may I know why you added salt please? ❤️❤️
Awesome💝 Yes, but if you want, you can reduce the water a little bit. Olive oil soap can be a bit soft and slimy and salt can help with that
Absolutely Awesome ❤❤❤
Thank you💝
Hello from Greece, ( again)! That looks amazing, but I wonder, why did you hot process? Wouldn't it be ready to mold after you cold processed it?
Thank you, I wanted to make a hot process soap because i think it's fitting for a olive oil soap😊
Merci pour le partage j'adore vos videos
Thanks so much🤗
What equipment do you use for your videos. Looks amazing. Thanks for sharing this great recipe ❤
Thank you💝 Basically a tripod and a pretty old camera, i use the canon eos m and in the winter i use a softbox to help with the lighting😊
@@tellervo.thanks
Is NAOH mandatory for soap??
An aleppo soap! Nice
Pretty much😊 thank you!
How long it took to cook the soap? Never made hot process soap but I would like to try
It took maybe 45 minutes to 1 hour😊
I have one of your books…looks forward to getting the other two….would you classify this soap as an Aleppo soap
Glad to hear🤗 I think you could call this an aleppo style soap😊
@tellervo Thank you for sharing your knowledge i learn a lot from your chanel.Awesome!🍃❤👌🌻
Great to hear🤗💝
How do you measure the pH of the soap? 😮
thank you!
From where do you purchase essential oils, fragrance oil and other raw materials for soap making.
I'm in Finland so I usually get them from a local supplier🙂
I like it very much, I can almost smell it ❤
Glad to hear💝
I have a laurel tree outside my pottery studio so am wondering if I can use fresh leaves? (PS just made your 100% coconut oil soap 😊)
That's awesome😊 Sure you can!
Have you tried using a coffee grinder instead of that pestle, ive also seen a hack someone used the stick blender upturned with shrink wrap over it and blitzed away😅
I should try something like that, not sure i'd dare try the stick blender😁
@@tellervo. I know knowing my look it would end up all over my kitchen.
What add for shelf life?
Es una bendición tu canal 🙏🙏🙏🙏, que Jehová te siga bendiciendo mucho
Thank you so much🤗
ضعي 5𝗀 سكر مع كمية الملح التي أضفتيها سيعطيك رغوة أكثر
I make too. Thanks
Laurel leaf is bay leaf?
yes😊
Does the citric acid make the lye not caustic?
no
Hello from Greece..why did you cook the soap?
It's a hot process soap🙂
I like so much thanks!!!
Thank you😊
Instead of olive can we use any other oils
It's the main ingredient for this particular recipe so no🙂
Grazie!❤
❤️
Nice soap
Mine didn't take long time to trace i used olive pomace oil.
Why you always made soap with citric acide ? I want to know what he do to sop when you add it 😊 your fan from algeria🇩🇿❤️
I have written about it in the description box🤗💝
@@tellervo. Ohh i didn't see it thank you 🌸🥰
Vielen Dank
I can smell the herb all the way to Sweden 😎
Bay smells so good🤗
Where in Sweden are you?😊
@@tellervo. Far south! Near Kristianstad 😁
@@linasjostrand4034 nice😊
Is there another name for Laurel leave, I'm not sure I know that leaves. It looks like primento or guava
Its Bay leaf or Laurus nobilis
Bay leaf
@@soop4956 Thank you so much
هذه الطريقة تدعى النصف ساخنه

Nice😊
Why laurel? I have a legacy laurel edge on my property and I hate it. BUT if there’s a soap to make out of it, I’ll keep the hedge
Why would I need to cure a cooked soap?
The water needs to evaporate and they do get milder and overall better with time
I had thought that by cooking the soap, the cure time would significantly reduce.
I haven't really found this to be the case. And since this is a 100% olive oil soap I would recommend curing it for an absolute minimum of 6 weeks
Belle recette, dommage a chaud😢
Very nice supper ❤
Thank you💝
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I thiught utbtook at least a year for 100% olive oil soaps to cure
They get better with time, but they can be used after a short cure too
