Where can i buy jars of malt extract for bread making?
There are two kinds of malt extract in the stores. The first kind is a sugar substitute. I use Eden’s Malt sold at Whole Foods in the US. This is a sticky, brown sugar that adds a nice color to the loaf and helps it brown. The second is diastatic malt, which is malt with enzymes in it that enhance the activity of the dough. You can either make this yourself or buy it from a homebrew store or from a supplier like King Arthur Online Store. If you buy it from a homebrew store, make sure you are getting diastatic malt and not just sugar malt.
