Frequently Asked Questions

How much nutmeg should I use? Use nutmeg sparingly — a small pinch (1/8 teaspoon or less) is usually sufficient for most recipes. Excessive amounts can be overpowering, and very large quantities have undesirable effects.

What is the difference between nutmeg and mace? Nutmeg is the seed kernel while mace is the red lacy covering (aril) around the same seed — nutmeg is more intensely warm and sweet while mace is more delicate and flowery.

Can I use ground nutmeg in savory Indian cooking? Yes — nutmeg is a component of complex biryani masala blends and some garam masala preparations — it adds an exotic, slightly sweet warmth to meat dishes and rich curries.
