  • Mix together all the ingredients in a glass mixing bowl.

Tip: Add the water a little bit at a time until you get a firm dough that can be easily moulded into shape - it's better to add the water a bit at a time so that you don't add too much.

*The vinegar is crucial as its acidity reacts with the alkali bicarbonate of soda. If you don't have vinegar you can substitute it with lemon juice.
