Nutmeg is the seed, or the ground spice derived from the seed, of several tree species of the genus Myristica fragrant nutmeg or true nutmeg (M. fragrans) is a dark-leaved evergreen tree cultivated for two spices derived from its fruit: nutmeg, from its seed, and mace, from the seed covering. It is also a commercial source of nutmeg essential oil and nutmeg butter. Nutmeg is the spice made by grinding the seed of the fragrant nutmeg tree into powder used to flavor many kinds of baked goods, confections, puddings, potatoes, meats, sausages, sauces, and vegetables, and beverages.
