Bring the water to the boil (not too hot) and soak the dates in the water bath for about 2 hours. The dates should just be covered with water.
Drain the soaked dates over a sieve and then leave to steam in the sieve over a pan of boiling water for about 10 minutes.
Take the hand blender and puree the dates into a paste.
Rinse disposable jars with hot water, allow to dry briefly and then fill with the date paste, store in a cool, dry place.
