Whole Nutmeg

Nutmeg has an intense, bitter-sweet flavour. Nutmeg tastes great in soups, meat, vegetable, rice and pasta dishes and is also used in baking gingerbread and for tasting sauces.

To preserve the elusive flavour, we recommend freshly grating a whole nutmeg with a special nutmeg grater and adding the spice to your cooking straight away.

Nutmeg can have a toxic effect consumed in excessive amounts above 4g (one nut) and should therefore be used sparingly and most importantly, it should be kept safe from children. However, in normal doses, nutmeg is completely harmless.

One packet contains 4 or 5 nuts.
