Salt Dough

2 c Cornstarch
4 c Baking soda
2 1/2 c Cold water

Measure the cornstarch and baking soda into a pot. Mix and add 2 1/2 cups of cold water. Place on medium heat. Stir for about 5 minutes, until the mixture thickens. Remove from the heat. Cover the pot with a wet paper towel. When cool, knead for about 5 minutes, working on a surface covered with waxed paper.
