ORGANIC NUTMEG, whole
SKU: HN08-1
Hurry up! Sales Ends In
Botanical Name: Myristica fragrans
Origin: Sri Lanka
Production: Nutmeg isn't truly a nut, it is the pit of a fruit that is similar to an apricot. The tree can be harvested seven to nine years after it is planted, and it is in full production after 20 years. After harvesting, the seeds are dried over a period of six to eight weeks as the nutmeg itself shrinks away from the hard outer seed coat. The shell is then broken to remove the nutmeg kernel.
Qualities: Nutmeg has an aromatic, sweet, woody flavor, with hints of clove.
Common Use: The whole nutmeg has a fresher flavor and longer shelf life than ground nutmeg. It can be grated as needed for a wide variety of baking recipes. It also goes nicely with root vegetables and dark meats.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in a sealed container.
Safety: We recommend that you consult with a qualified healthcare practitioner before using any herbal products, particularly if you are pregnant, nursing, or on any medications.

Grate your own nutmeg!
I buy whole nutmeg and grate it for use in baking and canning. It has a much different flavour than commercially grated nutmeg. Try it for yourself and see! It is so easy to grate it on a zested. Try it in the ricotta layer of your lasagna as well.
Organic nutmeg
Great product. Fresh, well sealed, delicious.
Wonderful!
We use nutmeg fresh and grate it on many foods:) It's medicinal properties are a bonus to the rich flavor it adds to our yogurt, cookies, coffee or whatever it ends up in. Thank you for this high quality product!
Worth the effort!
Great - I love using fresh nutmeg and put it in a lot of baking!
Excellent Nutmeg
This is my second purchase of your whole Nutmeg. It's the best I've ever tasted. Fresh and fragrant. Extra big and easier to grind by hand.
