{"product_id":"nutmeg","title":"Nutmeg","description":"\u003ch2\u003eWhole Nutmeg without shell is ideal for those who prefer the intense aroma of whole spices over pre-ground options.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNutmeg (Myristica fragrans) originates from the Moluccas. It was introduced to Sri Lanka during the early nineteenth century for growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur premium harvest is organically grown in the lush hill country of central Sri Lanka. This region ensures peak quality for all crops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDRUERA markets Nutmeg in 4 oz and 16 oz pack sizes. Purchase online by clicking the arrow pointing down next to the pack size seen below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe source is a spreading evergreen tree reaching 15-20 m high. While flowers are mostly unisexual, bisexual flowers also occur naturally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin these plantations, the fruits develop as fleshy drupes. Once ripe, they turn yellow and split to expose a purplish brown seed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis shiny seed is encased in a vibrant, net-like red aril. This specific part of the fruit is known globally as the spice Mace today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tree uniquely yields two distinct spices. The first is Nutmeg, which is the inner kernel found inside the seed's protective shell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe second spice is mace. This is the crimson-colored, leathery outgrowth that covers the exterior shell of the seed before processing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing whole seeds allows you to grate only what you need. This practice preserves the volatile oils and warm, woody flavor profiles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur Ceylon variety is prized for its high oil content. It provides a deeper, more complex flavor than mass-produced alternatives found.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChefs prefer whole seeds for baking, sauces, and beverages. Freshly grated spice offers a superior fragrance that pre-ground powder lacks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe ensure that our spices are handled with care. This preserves the natural integrity of the kernel from the harvest to your kitchen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease view our full range of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/druera.com\/collections\/spices\" title=\"DRUERA Spice Collection\" target=\"_self\"\u003efreshly harvested Spices\u003c\/a\u003e.
