paste tubes

Here is a video of making paste and then storing it in sterilized tubes, which gives them a shelf life of several months.  It's a pretty amazing storage technique which solves the main challenge of paste, namely that it goes bad in just a few days. And it gets tiresome making paste all the time.





I think I'll work on the next one soon.  Check back.
