Nutmeg Ground 50g
The Warm, Fragrant Soul of Sweet and Savoury Cooking
Nutmeg is a spice of beautiful contradiction: it is both warmly sweet and subtly savoury. Our ground nutmeg is carefully milled from premium whole nuts to capture its full essence—a rich, woody aroma with notes of clove and a warm, slightly bitter finish. This complex flavour profile makes it one of the most versatile spices in your cupboard, seamlessly enhancing everything from rich desserts to hearty vegetable bakes.
This convenient, ready-to-use powder delivers the authentic, potent taste of nutmeg without the need for grating, making it the effortless way to add a touch of warmth and sophistication to your cooking.
