Saw this and thought I’d share.
Here’s the playdough recipe – using a measuring jug instead of weighing scales to make it easy.
- Warm 750ml of water in a large pan.
- Add 375 ml of salt
- Add 750ml of flour
- Add 45ml of sunflower oil
- Add 30ml of cream of tartar
- Add 10ml of vanilla essence
Stir the ingredients together over a low heat. Use a whisk at first to get rid of any lumps and then a wooden spoon until the dough comes together.
Remove the pan from the heat and tip the dough into a large bowl. (If you want to make several different colours you can split the dough into separate bowls at this stage and add a different colour to each bowl.)
Add a few drops of food colouring and knead for a couple of minutes until the colour is evenly spread through the dough.
Let it cool a little and then it’s ready to play with.
Store in an air-tight jar and it should last for at least a couple of months.
