Nutmeg

Comes from the Myristica fragrans tree, this particular tree is an evergreen tree that is grown in more tropical regions. However, it is indigenous to mainly Indonesia it can also be found in Grenada in the Caribbean, Sri Lanka, Guatemala, and Kerala in southern India.

This particular tree produces more than one spice that we are familiar with. While Nutmeg is the seed, Mace (not the capsicum variety but the one for cooking), comes from this tree as well. Before the Nutmeg seed is ready to be processed for use, it has a red-orange seed covering. This covering is removed, pressed flat, dried, and becomes what we know as mace.

It is toxic in high doses so be VERY CAREFUL. Use sparingly.
