Flavor Profile

Nutmeg has a fresh, warm aroma and a woody, bittersweet flavor with hints of clove. It pairs well both sweet and savory spices.

How to Use

Grind fresh nutmeg, then add to baked goods like breads, pies, or pastries. For savory recipes, grate nutmeg for lamb, veal, and vegetables, or with stews or béchamel. Also works well with fruit dishes.

About The Spice

Nutmeg is native to the Banda Islands of Indonesia, and is the seed of a fruit produced by an evergreen tree. This tree is one of a few plants that produce two spices, nutmeg, and mace, which is the protective outer layer of the nutmeg. We carry the best and the biggest fresh nutmegs from the island of Grenada.
