McCormick All the way in my kitchen very good product

It's nice to get nutmeg pre-ground, since you otherwise need a dedicated nutmeg grinder (the whole spice is large and woody). Nutmeg isn't a spice most of us need very often, and these little packages stack up so that two of them (maybe nutmeg and allspice, or nutmeg and mace) take up the same space as one regular spice jar. However, you're paying a premium here, both for McCormick brand name and for packaging. So, this is not a good deal if you actually use a lot of this stuff. Sure, spice snobs will also want to grind their own fresh. But for typical baking uses, this is just fine. Nutmeg is quite strongly flavored and scented, and goes a long way. As with other spices that have that sweet-and-aromatic "holiday" kind of taste and and aroma, this will blend well with cinnamon, cloves, mace, allspice, and coriander (and some less common spices like long pepper and – use this one very sparingly or it overpowers – cubeb pepper), so you can experiment until you get exactly the pumpkin pie (or whatever) custom mix you want. Nutmeg is also called for in various African, Middle Eastern, South Asian, and Caribbean dishes, so it's good to have some around. And it's also an major ingredient in Old Bay-style East Coast seafood seasoning (for Boston or New York red chowder). A California spice merchant also makes a San Francisco Bay seafood seasoning that uses a fair amount of it (to my taste buds, it seems kind of like a cross between Old Bay, Italian herbs, and taco seasoning).

Love this stuff. On time exactly What I needed

McCormick Classic Ground Nutmeg is how to keep Christmas & New Year's Eve with you all year long. Yum!
