Ingredients and Directions

This spice tastes and smells like a pungent version of

nutmeg, and for a very good reason . . . mace is the

bright red membrane that covers the nutmeg seed. After

the membrane is removed and dried it becomes a

yellow−orange color. It's sold ground and, less

frequently, whole (in which case it's called a "blade").
