Country of Origin: India

$3.99

Our Whole Nutmeg is the dried inner seed of the tropical evergreen Myristica fragrans. With its warm, sweet, and slightly nutty flavor, nutmeg is a classic spice for both sweet and savory dishes. Grated fresh, it enhances baked goods, custards, cream sauces, and beverages like eggnog and mulled cider. In savory cooking, it lends depth to soups, stews, and vegetable dishes such as spinach or squash. Whole nutmeg preserves its essential oils, ensuring maximum freshness and a robust aroma when ground.

Description

To use whole nutmeg, you’ll need to grate or grind it before adding it to your recipes. Freshly grated nutmeg provides a more potent and aromatic flavor than pre-ground nutmeg. A microplane grater or a specialized nutmeg grinder is recommended for grating. The outer red shell, known as mace, can also be used, either whole or ground.

Usage: Use in cakes, cookies, soups, stews, sausages, meats, fruits and eggnog.
