GF Playdough
Regular playdough is gluten full and a BIG NO NO on a GF CF diet. You can use CRAYOLA MODEL MAGIC or create your own. Here are some recipes:
1/2 cup rice flour
1/2 cup corn starch
1/2 cup salt
2 tsp. cream of tartar
1 cup water
1 tsp. cooking oil
colorings can be added
Cook and stir on low heat for 3 minutes or until it forms a ball.
Taken from "Gluten Free News" Spring 1996 issue
In rereading my notes I see that the recipe I used was the same, except it called for corn flour rather than corn starch. I stirred it over low heat until it couldn't be stirred any longer, then kneaded in more white rice flour by hand. It was still sticky so I sat it in a ziploc freezer bag for 2 days at room temperature and then it seemed to be OK. Mine lasted 5 years, kept in a freezer ziploc bag in the frig when not in use.

2 teaspoons cream of tartar
¼ cup salt
1 teaspoon xanthan gum
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Place all ingredients in a food processor. With blade running, slowly add ½ cup of boiling water through feed tube until the mixture forms a ball. If dough seems too crumbly, add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until dough is soft and firm. Run processor for a few more seconds to knead the dough, then transfer to a mixing bowl. Let cool, then knead until silky for 3-5 minutes. Lightly dust kneading surface with rice flour if necessary. If you don't have a food processor, stir flour with spoon in a mixing bowl while slowly adding boiling water, then knead for 10 minutes. Store tightly sealed. refrigeration when not in use is not necessary, but will maintain freshness.
