Grating Soap question

  ToastieSimons:

  For the EFF Homemade laundry detergent it says to grate the soap.

  I plan on using a food processor.  Do I need to grate it first with the grating disk and then pulse it with the regular blade?

  Or is it fine if I cut it into pieces and just use the regular blade?

  She has good instructions in the recipe. Roughly chop and let it dry before processing on pulse. I always add a little of the powder when I do the soap because it makes it powder up nicer.

  I don't remember the exact settings we used but I think the most important thing was to let it dry and then redo it.

  I chunk up the soap with a knife and then just use the blade.  I do add some of my washing powder to the food processer, it makes it go faster...... (for the powdered detergent)  When I used to make liquid, I just used an old box grater.

  I bought one of those hand-cranking graters to use specifically for soap, because I found it was a total pain to get the soap residue off my food grater and food processor.
