    Enough to make a soft paste. Experiment with small amounts of water and pulp. If it’s too runny, add a bit of pulp. If it’s too stiff, add water.

    you could just add small amounts of water until it is the right consistency. adding more water would make it too sloppy to work with and not enough would make it too dry. im not sure of an exact amount but this might help.

    This site gives you three different recipes for paper mache and I hope it gives you an idea as to how to mix your pulp. One mentioned on another site is adding salt will prevent it from forming.

    I have a bag downstairs but am too lazy to go get it. from what I recall–add some water to make a mush & stir well. cover with plastic wrap & let sit for 10 to 15 minutes. uncover & stir, adding more water if necessary.
