Nutmeg

Made from ground seeds of the evergreen nutmeg tree, the nutmeg spice is used in a variety of sweet and savory dishes for its warm, spicy flavor when freshly grated on to a dish. It is also one of the few spices that are predominantly used in beverages, but also has a wonderful rapport with starchy and creamy food. Aside from its versatile culinary uses, nutmeg also contains powerful plant compounds that act as antioxidants and multiple essential nutrients with the ability to relieve indigestion, insomnia and other ailments.
