You’ll need:
1/2 cup salt
1/2 cup hot water
1/4 cup cold water
1/2 cup cornstarch.
In a pan, mix salt and hot water and bring to a boil.
Stir cold water into cornstarch in a small bowl. Add cornstarch mixture to boiling water.
Stir vigorously to break up lumps. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture
is like stiff pie dough. Remove from heat and turn out onto a breadboard to cool. As soon
as mixture is cool enough to handle, knead until smooth and pliable. Grainy texture, good
for rolling out and cutting into shapes to make ornaments, jewelry
or whatever you can think of. Dries and hardens in 1-2
days or bake at 200F for an hour. Paint with enamel paints. Will keep a long time wrapped
in foil or plastic without refrigeration.
All though this recipe is edible, it is not
recommended that you eat the Play Doh™. It doesn't taste very good. |
