Modernist Pantry Diastatic Barley Malt Powder Vegan OU Kosher Certified - 50g/2oz

So glad I purchased this. I've tried to make French baguettes before, but they just never tasted the same until I added this. Now I can make my own bread at home - delicious, tasty, amazing. I will never make bread without this malt powder. Definitely recommend.

Homemade bread is possibly my favorite thing on the planet other than homemade ice cream. It’s everything. Amazing. I’ve been making bread for over a decade now but I don’t know why I never researched any further into the realm of bread art and science. I mean I know some technique and some degree of science but I’m very...rustic. But anyway, it was only until now, (quarantine perhaps?) that I started looking into it and found out about this little guy. Ok, now my bread is GOOD. Like, the best it’s ever been. When your extremely honest, straightforward-to-the-point-it’s-rude mother tells you your bread tastes like or even better than bakeries in Mexico or France, and that your pizza is better than any other she’s had, or that Einstein has nothing on your bagels... (Leaves the room in disbelief while rays of triumph shine over)

Made some bagels with it this past weekend and they turned out great. There was a good malty flavor within the bagels and they had the perfect crusty exterior. Going to try some pretzels soon! Would definitely buy again.

It's made a difference in my pizza crust. It's subtle, but I think it's worth it.

Bought this as I had a recipe I wanted to try that had this ingredient - unfortunately that recipe did not work out. BUT I wanted to try it in my no-knead bread. So far have made 2 loaves and it made a big difference in the yeast leavening and in the bread flavor. My Husband is very happy with this 'new' bread and so am I. Will plan to keep using it in my breads. BTW I used 1 and 1/2 teaspoons for about 3 cups of flour.
