So, what is malt?

Malt is a versatile ingredient that is derived from sprouted grains such as barley, wheat, and rye. It is created by soaking the grains in water, then allowing them to germinate before halting the process with heat. This results in a sweet, nutty flavor that is commonly used in brewing and baking. Malt can be found in a variety of forms, including malt syrup, malt extract, and malt powder. It is a great source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, and can add depth and complexity to everything from beer and whiskey to bread and baked goods.
