Mace Powder Organic 25g - Quick Reference
What is it?: Organic mace powder is finely ground dried mace, the aromatic covering that surrounds the nutmeg seed.
Flavour: Warm, fragrant and lightly sweet with floral, peppery and citrus-like notes.
Common uses: Sausages, pates, fish pies, cream sauces, soups, custards, baking and savoury fillings.
Pairs well with: Nutmeg, cloves, cinnamon, white pepper, pork, poultry, fish, dairy and potato.
How to use: Add sparingly, particularly in pale sauces and delicate fillings where its aroma can spread quickly.
Compare with: Lighter and more floral than nutmeg, while the powder gives faster and more even flavour than whole mace blades.
Substitute: Nutmeg is the closest common substitute, but use less because its flavour is heavier.
Storage: Keep tightly sealed away from light, heat and moisture.
Good to know: Ground mace is particularly effective in sausages and forcemeats because it distributes evenly without visible spice fragments.
