Nutmeg refers to the seeds derived from the fruit of the nutmeg tree (Myristica fragrans). These seeds originate from the evergreen nutmeg tree, which is native to the Moluccas, commonly known as the Spice Islands, in Indonesia. Nutmeg features a warm, sweet, and slightly nutty flavor with a touch of spiciness, making it a versatile ingredient in both sweet and savory dishes. The nutmeg seeds are small and oval-shaped, roughly the size of a plum pit, and are protected by a hard, brown shell.
