## Description

Veggy Duck - Diastatic Malt Powder (400g) | Barley Malt for Bread Making | High Diastatic Power | Made in Italy : desertcart.co.uk: Grocery

Review: Nice smell and it seems like good quality - It's difficult to gauge how much to use but I love the smell of the diastatic malt..it reminds me of Ovaltine. I've used it in my bread recipes and it gives a very subtle malt flavour - just be careful not to add too much otherwise your bread will have a 'gummy' texture. x
Review: Imparts an excellent taste to all breads especially baguettes - As above. I find to use about 25g to 500g of strong bread flour gives a real good taste to most breads I have tried. Especially a French type baguette. It is a very good hack for making a bakery tasty baguette. Will work with Sourdough too and helps take away the slightly bitter taste sometimes associated with some sourdough starters. However I have noticed with sourdough, it definitely adds to the proofing time as the natural yeasts seem to take longer to ferment with this stuff added. However, with regular yeast it really does add a little something extra to the overall flavour. Highly recommend.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to dispense
*by T***N on 13 March 2023*

Don’t really know how to rate something like this because can’t compare it to previous since this is a first time to use but it doesn’t taste very sweet which is fine, it was got for baking so will be easy to dispense I’ll probably have to buy a cheaper one and try it as well as far as the price goes it’s definitely on the expensive side but it might be worth it just have to wait and see
