We search the world for spices and herbs of the highest quality. Then we craft and package them to deliver the most authentic and intense flavor possible. That's why home chefs who have a taste for flavor adventure and everyday cooks who just want better tasting meals fill their pantries with Spice Islands. Read more below about what makes Spice Islands so special. Warm and aromatic with hints of clove, nutmeg has long been a favorite of bakers. Though, its distinctive flavor can enhance a variety of sweet or savory dishes. We source our Spice Islands ground nutmeg from the East and West Indies. High in volatile oil content, it's cryogenically ground to preserve its flavor compounds. The result is a ground nutmeg that very closely matches the flavor of the whole spice. Fun Fact: The nutmeg tree actually produces two different spices, nutmeg and mace. Nutmeg comes from the seed of the tree and mace comes from the lacy substance that covers it. Our Ground Nutmeg is only nutmeg. Spice Islands spices and herbs don't contain added sugar, fillers or other ingredients so you get the most authentic flavor every time.
