Mace
Mace is a vibrant red spice derived from the outer covering (aril) of the nutmeg seed. Mace has a warm, aromatic flavor that’s similar to nutmeg but with a more intense, slightly pungent taste. This spice is commonly used in baking, sauces, soups, meat dishes, and desserts. It is often available in its whole form as mace blades or in ground powder form. Mace is also valued for its medicinal properties, including its ability to improve digestion, reduce inflammation, and enhance cognitive function. It is an essential component in traditional spice blends such as garam masala and Chinese five-spice powder.
