If you are baking or otherwise concocting dishes with recipes that require nutmeg, please do yourself a favor and use FRESH GROUND nutmeg and THIS nutmeg is a winner.
I used it initially in a fully liquid recipe and with preground nutmeg it often floats on the surface and is initially difficult to get blended in.
This nutmeg only briefly lingered at the surface before blending in with only a good wooden spoon stirring.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Product Description
What is Nutmeg?
The spice nutmeg has a distinctive pungent fragrance and a warm slightly sweet taste; it is used to flavor many kinds of baked goods, confections, puddings, potatoes, meats, sausages, sauces, vegetables, and such beverages as eggnog. The fleshy arils surrounding the nutmeg seed are the source of the spice mace. When fully mature it splits in two, exposing a crimson-colored aril, the mace, surrounding a single shiny brown seed, the nutmeg. After collection the aril-enveloped nutmegs are conveyed to curing areas where the mace is removed, flattened out, and dried. The nutmegs are dried gradually in the sun and turned twice daily over a period of six to eight weeks. During this time the nutmeg shrinks away from its hard seed coat until the kernels rattle in their shells when shaken. The shell is then broken with a wooden truncheon and the nutmegs are picked out. Dried nutmegs are grayish brown ovals with furrowed surfaces.

BUYER BEWARE. We get so casual about buying things on Amazon. And then when something terrible arrives, we only then notice that THERE ARE NO RETURNS and that I am not the first person to get STALE, FLAVORLESS, ODORLESS nutmegs. The picture shows what my nutmeg was like. Eau de old socks.BUYER BEWARE!
