HOW TO: Whipped Body Butter from BEEF Tallow | Zero Waste!

[@anoniemmoet8984]

Your skin looks gorgeous for someone over 40 . I use horse oil / emu oil / lard / chicken fat / tallow on my skin as well incorporated with toners and essences and it's the best thing I found in Japan

[@1870s]

Thank you

[@silvermans]

I use tallow and emu oil on face and beard and its brilliant. What is the horse oil/chicken fat like on skin/hair, also lard and what toners/essences do you use?

[@TheLeisamarie]

While I have been watching y'all for a good while, just came across this video! I have learned that rendering the tallow with water twice eliminates nearly all the smell of beef from the tallow. This is such a valuable resourceful channel! Thanks for having great content!

[@1870s]

Thank you for the tip, I'll try that next time

[@TheLeisamarie]

@@1870s thank you for responding! I love your channel and have enjoyed watching actively this past year. I am beginning to delve deeper into your content- there's much I can learn from y'all! Thanks for quality content, conscientious homesteading and please thank your daughter for her service, from me!

@@1870s did you ever try the double rendering in water? no beefy smell?

[@1870s]

Nope. We haven't needed to render anything since that vid.

[@naimoulinakibarde1995]

That 1870's Homestead what is double rendering in water please? Thanks

[@emilybarrier425]

Thank you so much for posting this! This is very helpful. My amazon package arrives today with my tallow in it and I am so excited!

[@Greens5511]

This is too funny to me that after rendering down A LOT of beef tallow yesterday I woke up this morning thinking I should try beef tallow lotion! Winter in MN, my dry skin, perfect solution. So I search it and of course there's Rachel with a recipe for me!! Oh there were others too, but for me I smiled and I knew I would try your recipe first! You're the best Rachel!

[@annagrinko7953]

Do you sell your tallow?

[@nutsforthebeach]

To reduce the beef smell, the tallow needs to be purified via the wet method. Checkout Bumblebee Apothecary video.

[@anne8743]

Last night I just made my first batch of tallow face whipped butter.I used bison tallow and infused camellia oil .I I try not to use essential oils as it seems my face reacts pretty bad to them.It is amazing!!!

[@silvermans]

Hi, how do you make this and where do you get bison tallow from as I live in UK?

[@kaylaalbers1153]

I thought the cops were outside the window for a second HAHA!!!

[@ghettocountry8678]

I think using tallow/lard is the best natural most gentle oil for your skin, because alot of other oils need a preservative or a thickener which then needs water which then causes bacteria and most of those preservatives is a chemical compound and this is what i also use to make my lotions and whipped body butters, trying to avoid any chemicals and I think using tallow is the safest way without having to worry if it's going to go back or melt becoming a liquid. NO worries with this one.

[@1870s]

Agreed my skins soaks this stuff up during the winter!!

[@RunninUpThatHillh]

Plus, we're red meat animals. Its the best thing and our skin knows what to do with it.💚

[@ghettocountry8678]

I'm not exactly sure about how or if anyone ever harms an animal to get it but with all the economic companies already slaughtering more than what we'd needed. But usually so much tallow/lard would go to waste & it's all natural meaning comes from where we do also, so I think of it like this so it doesn't hurt my heart when I think of those animals, because it's still gonna be there if I use it or not...only down side of it, but it meshes well with our skin because its the closest...

[@Shakiyrah_1]

Amazing. Many blessings to you for teaching this. Many women are saved.

[@makeminetexas3494]

Thank you for this video! I'm doing a lot of canning of meat lately. Been boiling the scraps to make broth, but didn't know what I could do with the tallow. I love this idea.

[@belieftransformation]

Great instructions; thanks for sharing!

[@lekis57]

Thank you for doing this my kidneys are going bad and I am all about getting in the vitamin k I can

[@EveInTheMachine]

Finally a recipe with ingredients I actually have! 😆

[@housetohomestead8628]

I don't have tallow but I bet lard would work. Trying it! Thanks!

[@1870s]

Oh yes it will!

[@Greens5511]

Okay, so since I know I am very sensitive to the smell of pig lard that gets an off smell once it has been sitting around too long, does beef tallow get a smell too after it has sat out awhile? I feel like leaving a big amount out on the counter for a couple months that it would get an off smell. What r ur thoughts on that?

[@rachelrachel7378]

I started making tallow for my face for a couple months now. I have a scar on top of my lip from my dog swinging his head around and my tooth went through my lip.... but one thing I've noticed is my scar is shrinking!!! It's less then half then what it was.

[@lisagrace6471]

Wow!!! That's awesome!!!

You may have answered this already but did you knit your sweater and if so, could you share the pattern?❤

Great video you should try this recipe with Hump Fat(camel fat) its non greasy and has no odor.

[@1870s]

Not sure I can locally source hump fat here in Michigan, lol

[@lisagrace6471]

Gotta find me a camel😆 lol

[@flock_ness]

That was really interesting to watch, thank you.

[@jewels4028]

I have whipped tallow & Im adding calendula infused hemp oil. Do I need to melt the whipped tallow, or can I just mix the hemp oil into the already whipped tallow? Thank you:-)

[@official180degrees]

Cool, looks so easy! I don't work with essential oils much, does just a simple washing clean it up enough after using the oils with your kitchen bowls, etc? ~sarah

[@1870s]

Oh yeah, I choose stainless and glass to work with so I can use my stainless scrubber pads to clean them. But basically just like cleaning anything that has grease, hot water and soap

[@sarndav]

Is there a way to eliminate the beefy smell?

[@TheHoneystead]

Yay!!!!! I love it!!!

[@cynthiafisher9907]

Thanks! This looks fun to make!

[@beepboop9519]

Do you sell this online? I don’t know if you stated in the video KZbin’s captions are weird sometimes.

[@1870s]

I do not sell it sorry

[@quixoticmantis]

If I tried this with lard, do I need to keep it in the fridge or would it be ok stored at room temp? Thank you for this! 😍

[@1870s]

Lard is even better option and would be shelf stable

[@RunninUpThatHillh]

Any type of lard? I have a freezer full. 😂

[@tinalauritsch5844]

Is it bad to melt it without water bath?

[@beautybydreav7552]

is it essential to add olive oil before whipping? Will it turn out ok if I dont?

[@No_Frills_Carnivore]

I add a bit of oil to my tallow to stop it setting hard. But I use it as a hair/scalp grease. It still works very nicely on skin though. Great consistency.

[@ruesrevelations4340]

How do you make your tallow? Do you just render beef fat scraps or does it have to be beef suet?

[@1870s]

We asked the butcher for all the fat trimmings after the cow was processed. I have another video on how to render pig lard and I did my beef Tallow the same way

[@lalitham7009]

Thank you

[@blitzburghbilly7813]

GOOD AFTERNOON RACHEL ..... QUESTION: DOSE THE ( ESSENTIAL OILS ) NOT MASK or TAKE AWAY THE (BEEFY) SMELL ?

[@1870s]

Not entirely in safe doses. It will with Pig Lard but beef tallow is powerful stuff.

[@blitzburghbilly7813]

@@1870s Oh WOW OK, & THX FOR THE SCHOOLING 🤔 ON THE TWO DIFFERENCES HERE 👍🏼 ......

[@manuellife174]

If you do the water process to tender your tallow it will be a odorless.

[@sarndav]

I'm almost embarrassed to even post this comment. The tallow scent was too overwhelming for me so I added ALOT of Essential oils. I do want to say, I love the idea of tallow because of the healthy skin benefits. Anyhow, now I'm finding out that too much Essential oils are bad for the skin. Have you experienced this with essentials? Now I'm scared to use the product or gift it. Maybe I can make a new batch and mix the first with the second to dilute the Essential oil.

[@RaechelleJ]

Wow this is great video thanks.

[@myheadofhair]

Hello! Does it stay like this or does it eventually meltdown or does it end up getting hard? Hope that makes sense. I made a shea butter whipped body butter but it ended up becoming very hard. It looked whipped, with the appearance of it being fluffy but ended up being essentially the same as if I didn't even whip it at all.

[@1870s]

I've used it all up and did get a little firmer

[@myheadofhair]

@@1870s Thank you! I was wondering about that. I am trying not to have to use emulsifers and what not, just not interested in a bunch of perservatives and chemicals etc. Okay, thank you. I'll just take the plunge!

[@gloriacross6995]

How did you actually make the tallow?

[@fabricpixie3602]

ok what did I do wrong? Followed recipe, it whipped up but did not stay fluffy... more like melted ice cream and even to the point of just oil again. Should I use less oil (I used sweet almond oil)?

[@1870s]

I don't know if exposed to heat or hot temperature I suppose that could change it.

[@placeholder_Utoob]

Is this greasy? How quickly does it absorb?

[@1870s]

Not greasy, soaks in very fast.

[@Adriana8n87R]

[@valondra3131]

This is amazing thank you for sharing this. Question though, could I use coconut oil instead of olive oil?

[@1870s]

Yes that should work just fine

[@vancepmark]

Thank you so much I was looking for this comment

[@RunninUpThatHillh]

Use any oil. Just think about absorption. I used avocado and then jojoba. The jojoba absorbs the best, ime. Costs a bit more but great on the face. I infused my oil for six weeks with various herbs (dry rosehips, calendula, etc) and it brings it over the top. The calendula got rid of my psoriasis. I knew it works but am amazed every time it does😂

[@foxywhitetip7387]

The tallow got rid of the psoriasis that’s what it’s known to do, and eczema

[@Pine-uc7pm]

How do you store this? I’m thinking not in the refrigerator.

[@1870s]

I just stored on my bathroom counter

[@shayne3650]

How long can you store it for?

[@MelMel-in8kq]

Could you do this with lamb tallow?

I would think so but I have never worked with lamb tallow so I'd recommend researching it more

[@whatta1501]

Does it have to be pasture raised fats

I wouldn't think it matters really, but it would likely have more natural vitamins
