My wife and I honeymooned in Barbados. When they open the doors to the plane, there is an overpowering fragrance of nutmeg. Apparently they use it in rum punch, which seems to be the national beverage of Barbados.

[@Sedh8919]

My wife has a nut, peanut, tree nut allergy and does not try many spices. Your educational videos are a great help! Thanks

[@mfaizsyahmi]

The spice that sustains James Townsends. Kinda crazy to think that a few hundreds of years ago the entire world's supply of nutmeg came from a few tiny islands in the middle of nowhere. Thanks to cunning Englishmen who smuggled viable nutmeg seeds out of the islands that we now have nutmeg grown more widely and the spice now more readily available.

[@gearandalthefirst7027]

I was looking for a Townsends comment lmao

[@escapetherace1943]

when you prison wallet a nutmeg seed for 4 months because it will make you a fortune.......

[@chrisc7914]

Thank you. Always wondered what mace was and how to actually use the stuff.

[@hijashamsa7501]

Nutmeg is one of the good medicine . If you have any digestion problem or stomach ache use nutmeg powder mix with honey you will get good relief

[@91010186]

It is only for cold stomachache

[@TohTomajohs]

What about mixing in ginger?

[@brockreynolds870]

I'm just now discovering your seasoning series. VERY good series, and much needed info!

[@loretta1956]

Speaking from the Caribbean that grows it we also put it in drinks

[@TheOneEyedHound]

You are great to listen to and thank you for this interesting information

[@osordon]

Thank you for this video. Some time ago I bought a small jar with mace and have used it in several dishes. It’s amazing. You also offer some interesting information of what we can call “the nutmeg wars”. I found references about it in Russell Shorto’s , a great book on how this city became a seedbed for liberal thinking and many institutions and customs we have today in modern world. I enjoy the chapter on the origin of global commerce, multinational strategies and trade in which pepper and nutmeg played a crucial role.

[@evanmcarthur478]

I want to grow nutmeg trees!

[@TheDorkieman]

It's used for a alternative MDMA synthesis too alongside with Qat/ Miraa

[@nitapatel7000]

Is the shell of nutmeg edible?

[@stevenem143]

Going to try it in mashed sweet potatoes 🎉🥹👍. Enjoyed this video immensely!

[@pflick13]

That was some great information!!

[@Bageera63]

I love Nutmeg!... In my food...Hey, do an 'All About' segment on ginger. Another sweet or savory spice. Thanks! Still enjoying your videos!

[@GlenAndFriendsCooking]

We've put ginger on the list!

[@rahmatfadli3711]

Hi Glen, I am waiting for nutmeg drinks recipe from you. I've made ginger beer and ginger bug as well that I learned from you video. Thank's for the recipe Glen.

[@chiangchengkooi9791]

The fruit is sour and rubbery taste but not goes to waste, it preserve be preserve with syrup and dried up and make tasty snack.

[@denisenoel191]

Nutmeg found on the Beautiful Spice Island of GRENADA. Prounounce as GREE NAE DA.

[@jimbo97]

Interesting! Wars fought over Spices! Much more logical than wars today. I'll remember this when sprinkling a little nutmeg on the top of my eggnog. 🙂

[@justmadeit2]

I put half a teaspoon of mace in some soup I was making and felt tired after and thirsty, the next day I felt tired too, it must have been strong, I'll put less in next time. It smells strong

[@khenzanimyers]

Can the shell in between the nutmeg and the mace be used as a spice? It smells fragrant.

[@sandrastreifel6452]

I wasn’t sure the red ones were Szechuan peppercorns. I want to try them, they’re a completely unrelated plant- citrus family!

[@coxxycabee]

You said you'd never buy ground nutmeg and only use whole nutmeg and then grind it yourself. What about mace? Would you buy that ground? I ask because unlike nutmeg, mace is basically nonexistent in Australia so i need to buy it online.

[@PaddleAsia]

Fresh Mace is delightful in oatmeal with either strawberries or blueberries. I tend to favor Mace with strawberries, even though I like blueberries more than strawberries.

[@maxinegreise7231]

Nutmeg. Is. Excellent. On. Rice. Thanks. Very. Good. Spice. The. Middle. Seed. Grounded. Its. Good. For. Many. Things. 😋

[@edrineldo7344]

I got a plantation of this in India

[@violetsdresser2111]

great quality video very informative thank you

[@loreenewilliam6233]

Mace give a wonderful flavor

[@marjohmu]

Did not understand if I need mace, I grind the outside shel of the nutmeg... That's how it works?

[@anitasapra]

Thank you for the information.🙂

[@NickCombs]

Personally I find mace has a more peppery and savory flavor, but that could just come down to having ground mace and whole nutmeg.

[@kcjd8659]

So who was dipping it in lye? Were the islanders forward thinking, or did the merchants just assume they would make more money importing it than growing it themselves?

[@iGetlame]

Hi Glen thanks for the video! Do you know if the thin shell on the nutmeg itself is edible?

[@NINacide]

2:10 "Mace-On Jar" ha can't unsee that

[@jennifercline6866]

I live in the 'Nutmeg' State, I do like it but fresh ground is best. Matches well with eggs and bananas.

[@lindseyatchley1453]

I got mace in my spice rack. Somewhere

[@Joshua-hz3cl]

[@dikshasharma2724]

Is it citrus or not please reply

[@RaulGouveia1]

Portuguese navigators were the first europeans arriving at Banda islands, in 1512.

[@Goodmans93]

Mace : He's too dangerous to be kept alive!

[@SandraDee590]

Hello, What would one blade of mace equal to when ground? I can't find any information online. It varies from 1/2 a teaspoon to a teaspoon. The recipe I am making requires a blade of mace but I only have the powdered at home. Thank you!

[@GlenAndFriendsCooking]

There is no 'one size fits all' answer - a blade of mace varies wildly between plants. I'd err on the side of too little.

[@SiKuyaP]

Thank you so much

[@collecter3456]

This is a good spice. Love the versatility of it. I got some ground nutmeg before, just so I'd have it, as it was cheap. I thought I disliked nutmeg. I decided to try whole nutmeg. Now I only use ground nutmeg, as it is completely different. You miss out on a lot of good aromas and notes with ground stuff.

[@UniqueCrafts]

thanks

[@MagickThoughts]

I LOVE nutmeg in my mashed potatoes!!!! It’s a whole new level of yummy.

[@Blossom1948]

I have alway's used nutmeg all my life and grate whole nutmeg over my rice pudding (plenty of it ) so i get lovely brown skin on top 😁😋...thumbs up for nutmeg!👍👍👍👍

[@3rdcoastambit220]

Imagine being the poor guy who caught a cannon ball in a war over Nutmeg. You get to the pearly gates and St. Peter is like "So what did you die for?" and you have to be like "I died for the ability to garnish a pumpkin spice latte." 🤣

[@artcollins6968]

Peaches love mace.

[@lindseyatchley1453]

I've collected them from all over the world. Mostly

[@GP-MB-Baden-WurttembergDeutsch]

Hi Lindsey, could you please let us know, where can I order online mace with nutmeg the hole pieces fresh. I really appreciate if you could tell us, thank you 🙂😉💐💐

[@GP-MB-Baden-WurttembergDeutsch]

[@acyutanandadas3966]

[@cassandra4475]

No. He said MACE in Mashed potatoes

[@acyutanandadas3966]

@@cassandra4475 Thankyou for clarifying. :)

[@2167PhillipM]

I'm very happy nutmeg isnt a nut like a peanut or walnut. Because I have a SEVERE allergy to all forms of nut.

[@ginojaco]

Nuts ARE seeds... 👍

[@syedyawerhussain]

We use mace in Biryani

[@annevaldevieso5249]

I'm here because of the mace...

[@pparalaxx3014]

Ah yes the taste of old cabinets

[@razakza]

Where are the Hindutva guys to claim nutmeg/buah pala as an "Indian" spice? Come on guys, don't keep us waiting forever. You know that "everything comes from, or was invented in India". 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

[@shyam3boo1]

India ?

[@devicruickshank9800]

Indians and asians are the most use probably come from india.

[@khalidfawaz8253]

If anyone would like to import nutmeg, u can contact me

[@janetsanders5356]

Spaetzle

[@karm65]

I really don't like nutmeg mostly because people use way too much. so it becomes a nasty overpowering flavor, add to that it is actually toxic and too much will make you very sick. I have no idea why anyone uses it.

[@NickCombs]

Thanks for the warning, but nutmeg is apparently only dangerous in quantities of 2+ tsp per serving. That's way more than anyone sane puts in their recipes :)

[@cravingroom6129]

it is nasty when it's not fresh & if you use it too much.. whenever I used nutmeg, I only use just a tiny sprinkle of grounded or grated nutmeg and never use store bought ground nutmeg, oh anyway, the REAL INDONESIAN nutmeg slightly look different with the one I found here in USA, here is tend to be smaller and more oval in shape while real indo version more round and a tad bit bigger in size... speaking about toxic, candle nut is contain toxic too but it's common in Indonesian cuisine and we are all safe so far, by all means, we don't use it too much and I guess anything that is "too much" never turned good :)

[@mysticrhythmsundercityligh1026]

The psychoactive Myrictasin is similar to mescaline

[@let_uslunch8884]

I don't find people use too much nutmeg for me people use too much cloves. They overpower like the dickens. I almost don't like cloves for this reason. I use very little of it.

[@TheDorkieman]

The MACE (not the nut) contains Isosafrole, Safrole, Elimicin and Myristicin which together form 3,4 methylenedeoxy-methyl-phenylethylamine and can then easily be synthesized into MDMA and even more active derivative analogs

[@SiKuyaP]

Thank you so much
