Nutmeg is a warm, aromatic spice obtained from the seed of the Myristica fragrans tree, native to the Spice Islands but now grown in parts of India, Indonesia, and the Caribbean. Known for its sweet, slightly nutty, and woody flavor, nutmeg is widely used in both sweet and savory dishes, as well as in baking, beverages, and spice blends.
In cooking, nutmeg enhances curries, soups, sauces, baked goods, and festive drinks like eggnog and mulled wine. In traditional medicine, it is valued for its digestive, anti-inflammatory, and calming properties. The spice contains essential oils such as myristicin, which contribute to its distinct aroma and potential health benefits.
Nutmeg is usually sold whole or ground, with whole nutmegs preferred for maximum freshness since they retain their oils longer. When grated fresh, it releases a stronger aroma and flavor compared to pre-ground forms. Proper storage in an airtight container away from heat and sunlight can keep nutmeg flavorful for up to 24 months.
