Paste

Black walnut paste is a dense, oil-bound grind used when bakers want concentrated flavour without free-flowing flour. A light roast before milling deepens the resinous character; rawer grinds stay sharper and darker from pellicle. Loosen stiff paste with warm syrup or milk before folding into batters so it does not seize. Ice cream and candy makers prize small percentages for big aroma. Keep sealed and cold—high oil stales into paint notes that sugar cannot hide. Quality paste smells clean and woodsy; discard oxidised jars. Label as tree nut even inside fillings.
