Catholic Recipe: Homemade Paste

When children's crafts require paste, why not make your own? This can be part of the project with the children. This is a traditional paste used in bookmaking, but not used as much now due to attraction of pests and allergies.

DIRECTIONS

Combine and mix until creamy. For a more durable paste and 1/2 cup of flour to 1 cup boiling water, stir over low heat until thick and shiny. Store when cool in a glass air-tight jar or plastic container with lid.
