Salt dough is an old technique and very easy to implement. First, mix the salt and flour in a bowl. Add, little by little, water to get a good ball of dough.

In case, your paste is sticky, add flour and salt in small doses respecting the proportions. If you want to prepare your dough in advance and keep it fresh, just put it in a plastic bag and wrap it in a cloth. You can keep it in the refrigerator for a week.
