Granny's Squishy-Wishy Play Clay
2 cups boiling water
1/2 cup salt
3 tablespoons salad oil
2 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons cream of tarter
Optional: 2 packages of UNSWEETENED (nothing)drink mix (for color and scent) OR a few drops of food coloring and 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract.
Bring water to full boil, add salt. Continue to boil until salt is dissolved. Add salad oil. IN A LARGE BOWL, mix dry ingredients. CAREFULLY and SLOWLY pour salty, oily HOT water into the dry ingredients, beginning to mix as you go. Add food color and vanilla at this time if you desire to use them. Roll out onto a large piece of waxed paper and allow to cool enough to handle. Knead until soft and pliable. IT IS IMPORTANT TO USE THE SEPARATE BOWL. This seems to slow the cooking process enough to make a more desirable squishy wishy product. Store in airtight container. Two zip sandwich bags work perfectly.
