Where does organic ground nutmeg come from?

Organic ground nutmeg comes from the nutmeg tree. It is found in tropical and rainy coastal areas. The nutmeg that you can buy online from us finds its origin in Sri Lanka. Apricot-like fruits grow on the nutmeg tree. Its kernel is covered by a hard bark. Only when it is dried in the sun, this bark bursts and the nutmeg is released. Organic ground nutmeg thus comes from the dried and ground nutmeg grown organically. The organic products of herbs and spices help to reduce harmful influences on the environment and thus preserve nature. The bark of the nutmeg is known as mace. It therefore has a similar flavour to nutmeg and is also used in sweet and savoury dishes. Nutmeg has a slightly less strong taste.

The effect of organic ground nutmeg

Organic ground nutmeg has a strong aroma that quickly evaporates. For this reason you do not add it at an early stage in the cooking process, but as much as possible at the end of the preparation. Even though organic ground nutmeg has various health benefits, you should take into account the recommended maximum quantity of 5 grams per adult per day. Excessive use may cause physical complaints. If you use ground organic nutmeg in the right dosage, you will benefit from it and you will be able to take in important minerals without even realising it. It also has an antibacterial effect and a beneficial effect on your digestion.
