About
Details
Even the name of the evergreen tree that produces both mace and nutmeg- Myristica fragrans- tells you that this is an aromatic spice. Mace is the spicy-sweet spice from the thin, bright-red aril or lace-like covering over the nutmeg kernel. Use mace as a one-to-one substitution for nutmeg. Mace delivers a slightly sweeter, more delicate version of nutmeg’s warm, spicy flavor. Lighter colored mace is preferable for cream sauces, Swedish meatballs, potatoes, root vegetables, fish, chicken and custard-based desserts. In Indian cuisine, mace is toasted with other whole spices then ground and added to curries. Mace can be used in sweet recipes similar to nutmeg, including chocolate desserts, pound cake, donuts, pumpkin pie and carrot cake.
Ingredients
Ground Mace
Directions
From the same fruit as nutmeg, mace is warm, spicy and slightly sweeter. Use in place of nutmeg. Add a pinch to desserts, cream sauces and potatoes.
Warnings
Do not use if seal under cap is broken.
