Answer 2

Here's a hugely easy recipe -- I make it in the breadmaker, but you can make it by hand.

2 1/2 cups (US) of flour
1/4 c. of cool water
2 TBSP of salad oil
Vanilla extract and food coloring if desired.

Put the flour in a bowl, and make a well. Mix the water and oil, and add the extract and food coloring to the liquid, if using. Mix the liquid into the flour. You will get a dough that doesn't look like much, but if you knead it 8 to 10 minutes, it'll get very nice and smooth.

Hope that helps! Keeps in the fridge for about a week, if well wrapped. You can add liquid if it's too crusty, and more flour if it's too soft. Keep in the fridge, but it's best to play with it at room temp.

Answer 4

This one doesnt need cooked at all. Its how my mom used to make it for us. Just make sure it doesnt get eaten, I know from personal experience, that eating it can make you sickto your stomach, I guess its from all the salt. But real play doh does it, too.

UNCOOKED PLAY DOH:
3/4 cups flour

3/4 cup salt

3/4 to 1 cup water with preferred color food coloring

1 tablespoon vegetable oil


Mix all ingredients. Knead until smooth consistency. Keep it covered and in refrigerator when not using it.
