Native to the Molucca islands of Indonesia, nutmeg has a sweet taste and is strikingly aromatic. It is equally delicious in both sweet and savory dishes. This finely-ground nutmeg is perfect for soft cheese pastry filling, French toast and mushroom stroganoff.
Spices and herbs should be stored away from light, heat and moisture. However, storing spices in the refrigerator or freezer may actually shorten their shelf life and they risk picking up other food odors. In general, whole spices have a longer shelf life than ground spices. Depending on the spice and how well it is stored, a good rule of thumb is six months to a year for powdered spices and longer for whole spices and seeds. The best way to determine if your spices or herbs are still fresh is to close your eyes and sniff – if you cannot immediately tell what the herb or spice is, toss it!
