Description

Whole nutmeg paired with its delicate lace-like covering, mace—two spices in one aromatic duo.

It has won the 2** GREAT TASTE AWARD 2023.

Nutmeg with mace refers to two spices that come from the same plant: the nutmeg tree (Myristica fragrans). They are closely related but distinct in flavor and appearance:


1. Nutmeg

  • What it is: The seed of the fruit of the nutmeg tree.

  • Flavor: Warm, sweet, and slightly nutty.

  • Uses: Common in baking (pumpkin pie, cakes), savory dishes (béchamel sauce, sausages), and beverages (eggnog, chai).


2. Mace

  • What it is: The lacy, red aril (outer covering) that surrounds the nutmeg seed.

  • Flavor: Similar to nutmeg but more delicate, slightly peppery and citrusy.

  • Uses: Often used in lighter dishes like custards, clear soups, and white sauces, or in spice blends (like garam masala).

How to Use

Peel the mace (use it in cooking). Then break the nutmeg shell to use the Whole nutmeg.
