I have a problem….
I cannot find malt powder everywhere in my place…
I live in Indonesia….
all I found is something called “ragi”
it’s from rice flour that mixed with a little water and shaped into small cakes and then left overnight so some kind of micro fungi was present there….
I think the work is same…
changing starch to sugar…
but it contain microbacteria…
can it be a substitute?
or anyone have a hint for me?
please answer mee…
I really want to make that Sikhye…

Check out some Koreaan grocery stores in Indonesia. https://www.maangchi.com/shopping/indonesia I hope one of those is near your area.
You need barley malt powder or crushed barley malt to make shikhye. https://www.maangchi.com/ingredients/barley-malt-powder
