Modernist Pantry Non-Diastatic Barley Malt Powder – 400g/14oz, Non-GMO, Vegan, OU Kosher Pareve

Overview

Modernist Pantry Non-Diastatic Barley Malt Powder is a 100 percent malted barley flour that has been carefully roasted to reveal a subtle caramel aroma and a warm tan hue. The roasting process deactivates enzymes that can weaken dough structure, helping you preserve the integrity of your recipes while delivering natural color and flavor across baked goods.

As a natural humectant, barley malt powder helps retain moisture, contributing to a longer shelf life for items like breads, muffins, and pastries. This product also adds whole grain character to your baking, making it a versatile addition to both traditional recipes and modernist experiments.

The powder is non GMO and vegan and carries Kosher Pareve certification from the Orthodox Union, supporting diverse dietary needs while maintaining quality standards for professional kitchens and home bakers alike.
