Red Palm Oil

Notes:
¼ tsp tumeric
sugar

⚗️ How to Add It:

Option 1: Dissolve in water (best method)
  1. Measure your distilled water for the lye solution.
  2. Warm a small portion (about ¼ cup of that water).
  3. Stir in the sugar until completely dissolved.
  4. Let cool slightly, then add your lye slowly into this sweetened water (always lye into liquid!).
    • It will heat up faster than usual, so let it cool to your target temperature before mixing with oils.
Option 2: Add at light trace
  • Dissolve sugar in 1–2 tbsp warm water, then stir it into your batter at light trace.
    • This is easier but less uniform — a few sugar crystals might remain.
