Today I was thinking of making a cake or some other sweety with a big bag of malt crystals I have that I will probably not use in brews (got it when I hadn't yet moved off making can kits). I was wondering whether anyone had any recipe suggestions?
I'm thinking the maltiness and sweetness might go quite nicely in a gingerbread or pudding.
On a related note, I'm interested in hearing suggestions and feedback about use of common brew-recipe items.... in non-brewing recipes.
I know malt crystals are also sprinkled over milkshakes (used to be quite common, now quite hard to find cafes who will do this - a pity, it's delicious). Here's a recipe for malted loaf. And another for malt biscuits. And plenty more where that came from in google.
I was also wondering about using Irish Moss - in a jelly, or even a panacotta. Anyone tried this?
And has anyone used their hops outside of brewing?
