Instructions
-
Prepare the Dough: In a pot, combine 2 cups of flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, 4 teaspoons of cream of tartar, and 2 cups of water.
-
Cook the Ingredients: Place the pot on the stove over low heat. Slowly cook the mixture, stirring continuously until a cohesive ‘dough’ forms and starts to come away from the sides of the pot. This should take approximately 10 minutes.
-
Add Color (Optional): Once the dough is formed, you can add a few drops of food coloring to achieve your desired color. Mix well until the color is evenly distributed throughout the dough.
-
Incorporate Oil: Drizzle 2 teaspoons of vegetable oil onto the dough. Turn the dough out onto a clean surface or table and knead it gently until the oil is fully incorporated. This will help to make the playdough soft and pliable.
-
Store for Later: Your homemade playdough is now ready to use! To keep it fresh for longer, store it in an airtight container when not in use. Properly stored, it can last for ages, ready for endless hours of fun playtime.
