Nutmeg and mace come from the same fruit but are distinct spices. When the fruit is split open, the nutmeg seed is revealed beneath a bright red, lacy covering known as mace. Nutmeg and mace each have their own distinct flavor.
Both spices have a long history in Asian cooking, but this product contains whole nutmeg and should not be confused with mace.
Why Choose Whole Nutmeg?Whole nutmeg gives cooks the flexibility to grate the amount required for a particular recipe. It is a useful pantry option for anyone who prefers working with whole spices or recipes that specifically call for freshly grated nutmeg.
Bulk Whole Nutmeg for Restaurants, Bakeries & FoodserviceThe 1-pound resealable bag makes Whole Nutmeg available for higher-volume commercial use without adding foodservice wording to the product name.

With over 35 years of smoking experience, we started DDR BBQ Supply with a simple goal: to help others cook better barbecue. We've spent decades learning what works and what doesn't, and we apply that knowledge to every product we carry. From high-performance grills and smokers to carefully selected rubs, sauces, and tools, everything we offer is something we believe in and use ourselves. We don’t believe in cutting corners or selling gear we wouldn’t rely on during our own backyard cooks and when we compete in BBQ competitions.
