In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt, creating a soft mountain of white.
In a separate bowl, mix together the water and vegetable oil before slowly pouring it into the dry ingredients.
Stir gently with a spoon until it starts to take form, feeling the texture change beneath your fingers.
Once combined, knead the mixture by hand on a floured surface. Feel the dough warm and soften with each press.
If using, add food coloring now, kneading until the color is evenly blended throughout.
When your dough is smooth and pliable, take a portion and flatten it into a disc about an inch thick.
Press your hand firmly into the center to create an imprint, feeling the coolness of the dough contrasted with the warmth of your skin.
Allow the handprint shapes to dry at room temperature for 48 hours or until firm.
