Play Dough (cooked)

I'm always after a good play dough recipe. One that lasts. And I have finally found one! This recipe is quite brilliant and is oh-so professional. I'd even go to say that this recipe is even better than the 'real thing'. Yes, it is that good.

I made a batch of this over 6 weeks ago and it is still getting a good workout and is as good as the day that I made it. I store it in a large zip-top plastic bag when not in use.

Ingredients
2 cups plain flour
4 tbs McKenzie's Cream of Tartar
2 tbs cooking oil (I think I used olive)
1 cup salt
food colouring
2 cups water


Method
Mix the ingredients in a saucepan, stir over medium heat for 3-5 minutes or until the mixture congeals. (I think it took a while longer than that!)

I love this recipe too. Miss A spends a few hours EVERY day playing with Play-doh so it's much more financial for me to DYI.
