Equipment
- 2 Amber glass jars optional
Ingredients
- 1 cup 100% grass fed tallow
- 1/4 cup organic jojoba oil
- 1/2 tsp vitamin E oil optional
- 8 - 12 drops frankincense essential oil
- 5 drops geranium essential oil
Instructions
- Melt the grass-fed tallow using a double boiler over low heat until fully liquid.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly. You want it to cool to at least below 120F before adding the jojoba oil.
- Stir in the jojoba oil, vitamin E and drops of essential oil. Transfer it to the refrigerator immediately. You don't want the tallow to set at room temperature, otherwise it can become grainy.
- Refrigerate for about 1-2 hours until just set, not solid. This step is important to get right otherwise the texture of the tallow will be off. You should be able to create an indent in the tallow when you poke it, but you don't want it so set that it has become solid.
- Next, remove the tallow from the fridge and whip it with a hand mixer or kitchen aid mixer until light and fluffy (about 3-5 minutes)
- Funnel or spoon the tallow balm into clean jars and store at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or extreme heat.
