Madagascar Whole Nutmeg — Warm, Enchanting Fragrance
Our whole Madagascar nutmegs are naturally dried for maximum preservation of their essential oils. Harvested at perfect maturity, they develop a warm, complex, enchanting fragrance that instantly transforms any dish.
Aromatic profile
A warm, complex aroma: spicy, woody and lightly sweet notes. The essential oils (myristicin, elemicin, terpenes) are released on contact with the grater — which is why freshly grated nutmeg is incomparably more fragrant than industrial powder packed months earlier.
Recommended uses
Essential in béchamel, gratin dauphinois, mashed potatoes, soufflés, quiches and stuffings. In baking: speculoos, spiced cakes, bredele biscuits and gingerbread. A few grates over mulled wine, punch or a cocktail create an instantly recognisable aromatic signature.
Storage
Store whole nuts in an airtight jar, away from light and moisture. They keep for several years without losing their aroma. Grate only what you need — once grated, the aromas evaporate within hours.
