Mace 250g

Description

Mace is the aril (the bright red, lacy covering) of the nutmeg seed shell.

Mace and nutmeg are very similar, though mace is somewhat more powerful.

Mace is a lighter color and can be used in light-colored dishes where the darker flecks of nutmeg would be undesirable.

A small amount will enhance many recipes, adding fragrance without imposing too much flavor.

Mace works especially well with milk dishes like custards and cream sauces.

It contributes to flavoring light-colored cakes and pastries, especially donuts.

It can enhance clear and creamed soups and casseroles, chicken pies and sauces.

Adding some to mashed potatoes or sweet potatoes creates a more interesting side dish.

Some beverages improve with a little mace, especially chocolate drinks and tropical punches.
