nutmeg is a spice that is often not used to its potential. growing up we used it for cookies and cakes... but you'd be surprised just what a great subtle "flavor enhancer" spice it can be. i use it to brighten and balance out great creamy dishes -- like: fettucine alfredo or potato and leek soup. it's also great in enhancing cooked greens, such as spinach, collard, kale, etc. all it takes is a couple of sprinkles into your dish. lightly fresh ground is the best, but a few shakes from the spice rack works too.

SPECiAL NOTE: like all spices. make sure you keep this golden nugget (kernal) fresh!
