Seed Malt

I'm looking for a gluten-free gochujang paste, a korean pepper paste sold in tubs. They all have wheat listed except for one brand. It lists seed malt as an ingredient. What the heck is seed malt? Naturally the word malt scares me but the allergen list just says soy. I know the translation of asian product ingredients sometimes gets mixed up. Does anyone know what seed malt is?

This is the most useful information I could find. It sounds like they're specifying it isn't barley malt? Not a whole lot of particularly useful, fast and easy to find info on seed malt. I did see one company post on facebook about it that they made it from rice. I doubt every company does though, I imagine it could be from plenty of types of seeds. http://criticalmas.com/2013/11/commercial-gluten-free-gochujang-now-available/

Seed malt is apparently an umbrella term and it includes some seeds like barley which will be a gluten problem. That MAY be broken down in the fermentation, depending on the cultures they use. But without testing and certification? You are rolling the dice.

I was having to find gluten free gochujang sauce awhile back and found this https://www.amazon.com/Gochujang-Korean-Chili-Sauce-7-5Oz/dp/B00OQGC20U/ref=asc_df_B00OQGC20U/?

      Try a multivitamin maybe it will cover what you are deficient in.

      Refractory Celiac disease - what to do

      By cristiana · Posted

      Agreed, and I can't remember exactly and haven't got time to check, but I think my blood didn't normalise for eight years! For years I read this forum thinking why can't I get my numbers down - everyone else manages to.   But my gastroenterologist didn't seem to worry about it, which makes me think he either thought I wasn't complying to the diet, or he'd seen similar cases.

      Celiac Disease Comprehensive Panel

      By trents · Posted

      Yes, being off gluten for 3 months would likely yield negative results. To get accurate testing redone you would need to restart gluten consumption for several weeks (the "gluten challenge") to the tune of at least 10g of gluten daily (about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread).

      That is one of the tests covered in the article I linked you above.

      Antibodies to Deamidated gliadin peptides.  It is another celiac antibody test. The main test is the one you had, TTG,  But a full panel will also include DGP IgA and IgG.  I was positive on all of them!
