Nutmeg is March's SPICE OF THE MONTH!

Nutmeg is a spice from the nutmeg tree, which is native to several Indonesian islands. Nutmeg has a warm, spicy aroma and flavour and can be used in sweet and savoury cooking - we hope you love cooking with it as much as we do! Check out our other great recipes this month that feature this great spice!
