Ingredients

  • Plain all purpose flour
  • Cooking oil I used sunflower oil
  • Food colors - The food colors can either be liquid or powder. I used a powder to which I added water to make a solution.
  • Salt
  • Water

Instructions

  • Take the flour in a large bowl.
  • To the flour add the required amount of salt.
  • Pour water into the flour and 3 tablespoon of vegetable oil in it.
  • Knead the dough evenly, if required more oil can be added.
  • If it is sticky, add more flour.
  • When a soft consistency is attained, make the dough into small sections with craters.
  • In the craters pour the food colors.
  • Use a glove ( I have used a surgical glove, as we have a bunch always at home, kitchen gloves also work fine) to mix individual dough. Please lubricate the gloves with oil, as the dough may stick with the glove.
  • Please use separate glove for each color or wash after mixing each color.
  • Alternative method, the dough can be placed in a zip lock polythene bag, close the zip and knead the dough into the color required.
  • Viola!!! Your Edible Play Dough is ready!!!
