Date Paste Soft-Flask Gel

Method 4 steps

1. 1 Soak the dates in the hot water for 10 minutes until very soft.
2. 2 Blend the dates with their soaking water, the lemon juice and the salt until completely smooth, with no skins left.
3. 3 Add water a teaspoon at a time until it drips slowly off a spoon; too thick and it won't squeeze out on the run.
4. 4 Spoon 45 ml portions into reusable gel flasks or small squeeze pouches and chill.
