In a kit I dont think you actualy boil the extract you just add boiling water to the extract. This alows the thick malt extract to become more easily mixable with the cold water.  The DME you are suggesting useing will be in powder form so I would think it should dissolve in the same way sugar would.


If your refering to the BOIL in an AG/EXTRACT brew then the boil is to drive off un welcome stuff (that I cant remember the name of) to sterilize the wort and to get the hops to do there stuff of bittering and the like.


Hope this helps if not someone with more info than I can give will be along shortly :thumb:
