Nutmeg, whole

Nutmeg is the inner seed of the fruits from the evergreen Myristica fragrans tree cultivated in the humid areas of Sri Lanka, Indonesia, the Carribbean, and South Africa. Nutmeg can be used in a large variety of dishes, but works best with other strong flavors as it can easily be overpowering. In sweet recipes, nutmeg pairs well with warming spices like cardamom and cloves, but the spice also plays well with ginger in more savory dishes. Little Woods’ Eggnog Spice is a perfect way to warm your hands and hearts in the upcoming holiday season!
