What goes with Malted Barley?
The ingredient is germinated and subsequently dried barley grain, whole, cracked or milled. Food-grade pale active malt is required where saccharification is intended; cooked whole malted grain supplies a separate cereal texture. This profile excludes malt-extract syrup, malted milk powder, brewing wort and unmalted barley.

Pairing principles
What pairs well with Malted Barley?
Rice is a direct substrate for active malt in sikhye. Wheat and spelt support a structured bread containing cooked malt grain, while milk and aromatic dessert components can frame its cereal sweetness. Specify grain stage and process before choosing a partner; malt syrup evidence does not automatically support whole malted barley.
