1 cup flour
1 cup warm water
2 t cream of tartar (a byproduct of the wine making process in case you're interested)
1 t oil
1/4 cup salt
- mix all the ingredients in a large pot over medium heat
- continue to heat and stir until your arm feels ready to fall off and everything comes together into one solid mass
- if your dough is still looking a bit sticky, continue heating and stirring a bit longer
- can be coloured with store-bought food colouring or with natural dyes like beet juice
This recipe makes a pretty small amount so you may want to double it as I did for the birthday boy. Keep the finished product in an air tight container when not in use.
I can't wait to make Abner her first batch!
We'll be making this for sure this summer. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
ReplyDeleteHeh heh! I made some a few weeks ago too, although it was for me and my boyfriend. We're both 30-something, but we act like we're three, so it entertained us for a few hours. Good call on the food coloring - that's the most fun part!
