Mace Spice – Javitri | United Spicefruit

The outer layer of the nutmeg seed is the source of the mace spice. It may be found in both savory and sweet recipes and has a toasty, sweet flavor with undertones of cinnamon and nutmeg. Mace comes in two forms: whole and ground. The thin, lacy, reddish-orange fibers that make up whole mace are extracted from nutmeg seeds and then dried. These fibers are ground into a fine powder to create ground mace. Mace is frequently used in preparing meat meals, stews, and sauces, as well as baked products, custards, and fruit desserts. It is also frequently used as an ingredient in spice mixtures like pumpkin pie spice and garam masala.
