Best Answer

this depends largely on the type of 'paste' you are referring to. There is tomato paste used in many savory dishes and sauces. There is royal icing that acts as 'glue' for any type of sugar based creation, such as cakes and gingerbread houses. There is also almond paste that is used in many confections and is the main base of marzipan.

If you meant "to baste", it means to occasionally moisten meat with its own juices, or with a liquid such as a sauce or marinade, during cooking.
