Sorry if I did not make it clear. What I meant is that it became pasty I grind the sesame seeds to powder form. They do not become loose powder for but clump together.
There’s no water added in your direction to save for later use. I make this in larger amount and keep in airtight container.

If that happens, you need to add more water. Do you measure all the ingredients?

First of all, I want to thank you for all the yummy recipe you have in your blog and have enjoyed making them.
I tried making the instant version numerous times and each time, when I grind the sesame seeds, it became very pasty with just a short time in my VitaMix. Do you have any suggestions how to prevent that? I tried using store bought sesame powder but is not as fragrant. Thanks for any tips you may have.

You need to toast the black sesame seeds firstly no matter which version preferred. Toasting can help to strengthen the aroma of the sesame seeds.

No. We will cook the mixture together later.
