Mace powder

Description

Mace is the thin, reddish covering of the nutmeg seed, most commonly used in Asian and Middle Eastern cuisines. Once the mace is peeled from the large seed and dried, its reddish color fades, and the spice takes on a light brown hue. Nutmeg and mace have different flavors—mace is lighter and sweeter than the seed itself, though both spices are used for similar culinary purposes.

USAGE: Mace is used in soups, sauces, and often as a spice for wine. It’s added to pound cakes, Swedish meatballs, donuts, sweet potato pie, oyster stew, and BBQ sauces. Many American hot dogs contain ground mace.

MANASGARSAS.LV RECOMMENDATION: Add a small amount of ground mace to freshly made mashed potatoes. Also, add a bit of ginger and ground black pepper.
