Wheat paste is just an easy to make adhesive. This is important,
because while one may not have their own T.V. station, they do have
a world of empty walls and telephone poles. Think of all the advertisements
that cloud your vision everyday, now think of wheat pasting as an
oppourtunity combat the commercial pollution of our vision, to advertise,
the way advertising should be - without a product!
Ingredients:
1 cup of wheat flour
1/2 cup of rice flour
3 teaspoons of cornstarch
2 cups of water
Combine wheat flour, rice flour, and water in a pot on the stove on low
heat. The mixture should be very watery. Stir the mixture constantly
with a wire whisk until the paste begins to thicken just a tiny, tiny
bit. This may take about ten minutes. Take the pot off of the heat when
you start to feel the mixture thickening. In a jar with a lid, combine
three teaspoons of cornstarch with a half of a cup of water. Tighten
the lid and shake the mixture until there are no lumps of cornstarch
that are visible. Add the cornstarch mixture to the flour mixture and
stir for another two minutes. Now you are done. Your arm may get tired,
so I suggest that you do this with someone else so that you can switch
off stirring.
