Ingredients:

  • 2 cups borax
  • 1 cup arm & hammer washing soda
  • 1/2 cup salt
  • 1/2 cup citric acid
  • 2 tsp peppermint oil (you can sub pretty much any essential oil)

Directions:

  1. Mix all ingredients in large bowl.
  2. STORE IN AIR-TIGHT ZIP-LOK BAG, NOT IN A JAR! (It clumps if it gets too damp, and if it's in a bag a quick squeeze breaks it up. In a jar it becomes a rock.).
  3. To use: Fill prewash and wash compartments completely, and use heat boost setting if available. Adjust amount of detergent depending on results in your area: reduce amount if you experience white residue; increase amount if dishes don't come clean. Strongly recommend using rinse aid as well.
