Nutmegs Whole Organic - Quick Reference

What is it?: Organic whole nutmegs are dried nutmeg seeds for grating fresh into food and drink.

Flavour: Warm, sweet, woody and highly aromatic with clove-like and gently peppery notes.

Common uses: Custards, rice pudding, bechamel, mashed potato, spinach, pumpkin, baking and festive drinks.

Pairs well with: Cinnamon, mace, cloves, ginger, vanilla, dairy, potato and squash.

How to use: Grate a small amount directly into the dish with a fine grater, then store the remaining seed for later use.

Compare with: Whole nutmeg preserves its volatile aroma better than powder and produces a fresher flavour when grated.

Substitute: Ground nutmeg is the direct substitute, although it loses aroma more quickly once opened.

Storage: Keep whole, dry and airtight away from light.

Good to know: A whole nutmeg is reusable over many dishes, making it easy to add freshly grated spice without opening a new pack each time.
