What’s the process that makes it good at something so far off from its composition?

We call it saponification! Which basically means taking oils and mixing them with strongly alkaline stuff, like wood ash left when wood completely burns away, which turns the whole thing into a chemical that mixes both with water, and with other oils, letting them dissolve in each other.
making soap is actually a really fun and easily accessible craft. Anyone with a kitchen and some patience can make cold-process soap.
