Is it gourmet playdough if you add glitter? SOS! We ran out of milk! We have a few slices of bread, so hopefully we'll make it through - I've used up the flour to make playdough.
This is the best playdough - smooth, and not a bit sticky. It keeps for a long time too if you keep it well sealed. I made some a few months ago, and had a madeline moment while cooking it - the smell reminded me of being a kid and playing with playdough.
Last time I made a bunch of funky colors. but they blend really well, so I went with primary colors this time.
Playdough
- 2 c flour
- 2 c warm water
- 1 c salt
- 2 T vegetable oil
- 1 T cream of tartar
In a large saucepan, combine all the ingredients. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and comes together. If its too soft, keep cooking.
Remove from heat and cool until you can handle it. Knead until it is silky smooth. Divide dough into however many colors you want. Roll each piece into a ball, make an indentation in the center, and add a few drops of food coloring. Knead until the color is uniform. Add glitter if you want!
Keep covered tightly and it will last a long time.
