  3. So, while we had the woodstove going yesterday, I decided to render some suet in one of my cast iron pans. Now the pan is completely seasoned! Suet/Tallow seems to work way better than even high-heat safflower oil (which left weird sticky spots and wasn't preventing rust). Spending some of my snow day re-seasoning my pans.

  8. Hmmmm. I just came across a recipe for #HandSalve made with #Tallow that doesn't involve essential oils -- only herbs!

    How to Make Herb Infused #TallowSalve
    November 13, 2018 by Marisa Tolsma

    "Ingredients:

    1 1/2 cups grass fed tallow balm
    1/4 cup dried comfrey leaf
    1/4 cup dried plantain leaf
    1/4 cup dried calendula flowers
    1/4 cup dried chickweed leaf
    2 tbsp beeswax

    Directions:

    - Melt tallow balm over a gentle heat until it is liquid.
    - Pour needed amount of tallow balm into a quart mason jar.
    - Add dried herbs to liquid tallow balm and stir to incorporate well.
    - Create a double boiler by placing the mason jar on a cloth inside a saucepan with water.
    - Heat the water until it comes to a low simmer.
    - Let the mason jar full of tallow balm and herbs sit in the simmering water for at least 3-4 hours, but much longer is better. I often let mine go 12 hours. Just keep an eye on it and replace water in the pan as it evaporates.
    - Strain herbs out of tallow balm using a metal strainer lined with cheesecloth.
    - Put the jar of herb infused tallow balm back into the double boiler, and return it to the gentle simmer.
    - Add the beeswax to the herb infused tallow balm.
    - Once beeswax is melted, stir to combine well.
    - Pour hot mixture into tins or jars to store.
    - Allow tins to sit until salve is solid.
    - Put lids on containers and store in a cool, dark place."

    How to Make Pine Pitch
    by Jamie L. Burleigh

    "I try to collect pine resin deposits that happen naturally, usually caused by a fracture in a limb by a storm, lightning, or animals scratching on the bark. I also gather resin that oozes naturally out of the broken knots in the pine tree. The runny clear resin, the dried up clumps of amber or the flakey white drips, dried from seasons past, are all good resin for making pine pitch."

    Ingredients

    To create this natural leather care recipe, we need just a few key ingredients. These come together to form a nourishing product perfect for maintaining and restoring leather items. Below, we outline the specific items required for this blend and their respective use.

    What You’ll Need

    3 oz of Tallow (preferably grass-fed for its purity and superior conditioning properties)
    1 oz of Beeswax (use natural, yellow beeswax for the best protective barrier)
    2-3 drops of Essential Oil (optional, adds a subtle fragrance and extra conditioning – choose scent-free if preserving natural leather aroma)
    Small Heatproof Container or Bowl (for easy mixing)
    Double Boiler Setup (ensures controlled heating and prevents burning)
    Clean Cloth or Applicator Sponge (for applying the finished mixture to leather)

    Ingredient Notes

    Tallow: Acts as a natural emollient, deep-conditioning leather to prevent cracking while replenishing oils.
    Beeswax: Provides a water-resistant barrier, protecting leather from moisture and enhancing flexibility.

    Why?

    1. Deep Conditioning and Moisturization
    Tallow acts as a rich, natural conditioner that penetrates leather fibers deeply. Unlike synthetic alternatives, it replenishes lost oils effectively, preventing cracking and drying. Leather treated with tallow regains its softness and flexibility, making it look and feel brand new.

    2. Enhanced Water Resistance
    Beeswax creates a protective barrier on the leather surface, shielding it from moisture and water damage. This is especially useful for items like boots and bags exposed to the elements. The wax seals the pores of the leather while still allowing it to breathe, ensuring longevity and resilience.

    3. Restoration of Shine
    Combining tallow and beeswax restores the natural luster of leather. When applied, the blend gives a polished, glossy finish that enhances the leather’s visual appeal without making it look overly synthetic or plastic-like.

    4. Protection Against Wear and Tear
    Both tallow and beeswax add a layer of protection that minimizes wear over time. Scratches, scuffs, and stains are less likely to penetrate the leather, keeping it in excellent shape. With regular use, this blend ensures that your leather maintains its strength and beauty for years.

    5. Eco-Friendly and Chemical-Free
    One of the biggest advantages is the all-natural composition of tallow and beeswax. They are free from harsh chemicals that can weaken leather over time. This makes them a safer, more sustainable choice for maintaining our leather treasures."
