Servings tablets
Equipment
- A large mixing bowl
- 0.5 oz. silicone mold ( I use these)
- An airtight jar or bag for storage
Ingredients
- 1 cup washing soda I like Sky High Suds
- 1 cup non-iodized salt I use pink salt
- 1 cup baking soda
- 3/4 cup lemon juice I like Santa Cruz Organic
- 2 tsp. essential oils for cleaning optional
Instructions
- Add all your dry ingredients (washing soda, salt, and baking soda) to a mixing bowl and combine well.
- Add your wet ingredients (lemon juice and essential oil) into the mixing bowl with the dry ingredients. Combine well, ensuring everything is evenly moist.
- Add 1 tablespoon of the mixture into the silicone mold (there should be enough for 60 tablets) and let sit until the tablets are hardened and completely dry.
- Remove the dishwashing tablets from the mold and store them in an airtight jar or bag.
Notes
To use, add one tablet to your dishwasher’s soap dispenser and wash alongside a natural rinse aid.
