Cool Clay Dough
You will need:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup water
1 cup salt
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
Food coloring
Mix flour, water, salt, oil and cream of tartar in a saucepan and cook over medium heat, mixing continuously until clay holds together. Let cool then knead on a floured surface. Divide dough into smaller balls and add food coloring to each ball, kneading in. Store each color in a separate airtight container. Dough may be used repeatedly and stored in fridge for weeks.
TIP: Your kitchen is full of great tools to use with clay. Use your garlic press to make hair, your cookie cutters for patterns, different shaped items to make shapes, and anything with texture to change the surface of your clay.
