Mix:
1 cup flour
1/2 cup salt
2 teaspoons cream of tartar (Yes, go to the grocery store in the spice area if you don't have this on your shelf. Don't leave it out.)

Add:
1 cup water
1 Tablespoon oil
several drops of food coloring
Cook, stirring briefly, until the mixture pulls away from the pan. (This may take a little muscle power, but the results are worth it!)

Knead immediately - or use a Kitchenaid mixer if you have one, with the dough hook on. Knead until smooth.

Store in airtight container.
