Introduction
Slime has become a popular toy for children and adults alike. However, most slime recipes require glue, which can be messy and difficult to clean. This recipe for slime without glue is easy to make and uses ingredients that you probably already have in your home.
Ingredients
To make slime without glue, you will need the following ingredients:
1 cup of cornstarch
1/2 cup of water
Food coloring (optional)
Cornstarch
Cornstarch is a fine powder that is commonly used in cooking and baking. It is made from the starchy part of the corn kernel and is often used as a thickening agent. Cornstarch is the main ingredient in this slime recipe and will give the slime its unique texture.
Water
Water is used to help dissolve the cornstarch and create the slime. You may need to adjust the amount of water depending on the humidity in your area.
Food Coloring
Food coloring is optional, but it can be used to give the slime a fun and colorful look. You can use any color of food coloring that you like.
Instructions
To make slime without glue, follow these simple instructions:
In a large bowl, mix together the cornstarch and water until it forms a thick paste.
If desired, add a few drops of food coloring to the mixture and stir until it is evenly distributed.
Knead the slime with your hands until it is smooth and stretchy. If the slime is too sticky, add more cornstarch. If it is too dry, add more water.
Store the slime in an airtight container when you are not playing with it. It will last for several days.
Step 1: Mix the Cornstarch and Water
