| Nutmeg is a spice from the nutmeg tree, which is native to several Indonesian islands. Both nutmeg and mace come from the same plant. Nutmeg is the nut, while mace is the surrounding lacy aril. It has a warm, spicy aroma and flavour which can be used in sweet and savoury cooking. Nutmeg has been used in folk medicine since the seventh century. Its oil contains eugenol, which has been used in dentistry for toothache relief. |
