peer agreement (net): +2(korn) Explanation: Korn - sandsynligvis byg eller hvede Malt is usually made from barley, but can also be made from wheat. CORN, in the Concise Oxford, is: corn 1 · n. 1 chiefly Brit. the chief cereal crop of a district, especially (in England) wheat or (in Scotland) oats. Ø informal the grain of any cereal, especially as fed to livestock. Ø N. Amer. & Austral./NZ maize. 2 ... – ORIGIN OE, of Gmc origin. ___________________________ MALT, same dictionary: malt · n. 1 barley or other grain that has been steeped, germinated, and dried, used especially for brewing or distilling and vinegar-making. 2 chiefly Brit. short for malt whisky. 3 N. Amer. short for malted milk. · v. 1 convert (grain) into malt. 2 (of a seed) become malt when germination is checked by drought. – DERIVATIVES maltiness n. malty adj. – ORIGIN OE m(e)alt, of Gmc origin; rel. to melt. Other, more food-oriented hard-copy dictionaries say the same in more or less detail. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 29 mins (2008-10-23 08:21:39 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I see that maize malt does exist, but where it is not specifically declared, I would assume the malt came from barley, wheat, or possibly oats. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 39 mins (2008-10-23 08:30:59 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Malt dextrin is possibly not important to allergy sufferers - it depends how pure it is, and what other traces go with it. Dextrin = soluble compound formed by the partial breakdown of starch by heat, acids or enzymes (amylases). Formed when bread is toasted and nutritionally equivalent to starch see also: http://www.yourdictionary.com/dextrin |
