If you have need of a good amount of paste, or if you are a fan of
frozen paste, try a mini food processor. For a very small amount of
paste, this will not work because the blades won't touch your mix. I
like to use it for big batches though. I run the food processor a
bit with just the sifted powder in it, to make sure it's nice &
fine. Then slowly drizzle in other ingredients. Letting it run a
while at the very thick paste stage gets out all the lumps. You can
then thin as desired & your paste will remain smooth. Added bonus:
the friction warms the paste w/out cooking it, jump-starting the dye
release process. As s/one else mentioned, this is the chef-like
approach to avoiding lumps. Sift and cream all lumps before you add
too much liquid.
