The history of making soap in the first place was to combine ash and oil and harden them.
But strangely, I don’t understand the idea of dissolving burned wood ashes in water and washing clothes with it.
I used to burn firewood, so even if the soot or flying ash splashed on my clothes, it wouldn’t come off even if I put it in the washing machine.
The story of Cinderella also means that Cinderella is covered in ash, but her clothes are worn out even after washing, so the fairy makes her a princess dress.
But no matter how much I looked at it, I couldn’t understand the idea of washing clothes with wood ashes.
Even if you look at YouTubers these days, how can that be clean?
