Martha Stewarts Foot Soak Recipes

MARTHA STEWART'S FOOT SOAK

Steps:

• Combine Epsom salts and kosher salt in a jar.
• Add baking soda and cornstarch, up to 1/2 teaspoon of Lemon essential oil, and up to 1/4 teaspoon of Spearmint essential oil.
• Attach the lid, and shake the jar to combine.
• Pour the mixture into a bag, and use within a few weeks.
• Use 2 to 3 Tablespoons per soak.
• NOTE: I tried this myself and used cucumber-melon essential oils. Heavenly!

GINGER BATH SOAK

Steps:

• Mix together and store in an airtight container. I actually like to whirl mine up in a blender or food processor so that the salt is smaller and easier to dissolve in the bath.
• Add 1-2 tablespoons to tub of warm water and soak for 20-30 minutes. Your skin will feel so soft!

CLASSIC MEATLOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Place bread in food processor; pulse until fine crumbs form. Transfer to a small bowl; stir in milk. Set aside, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine beef, pork, onion, garlic, egg, 1/4 cup ketchup, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add bread-milk mixture, and mix very gently with a fork (do not overmix).
• Place meat mixture on prepared baking sheet, and form into a loaf about 9 inches long and 4 to 5 inches wide.
• Bake, brushing twice with remaining 1/4 cup ketchup during baking, until an instant-read thermometer registers 160 degrees, 45 to 55 minutes. Let meatloaf rest 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

SIMPLE FOOT SOAK

Steps:

• Mix all dry ingredients together.
• Fill a large pitcher with warm to hot water.
• Add dry ingredients to water and stir till salt and corn starch is dissolved.
• Add honey to water and stir again.
• Pour mixture into foot basin.
• Relax for 10 to 15 minutes.

MARTHA STEWART STEAK MARINADE

• Whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, garlic cloves, and lemon juice.
• Place steak in a nonreactive dish, and pour marinade over top.
• Cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight).
