Polykarpos Nutmeg nut

It is used in baked goods, especially pumpkin pie and cakes, as it is a common ingredient in northern European cuisines for recipes with sausages and stews. In the South, a pinch of nutmeg is vital for spaghetti, cheese and boiled greens. Indonesian and Japanese curries often use nutmeg for a subtle sweetness and in the Caribbean nutmeg is added to greens, beef tail stew and as a garnish for various rum-based drinks. The sweet earthy, pine-flavored nutmeg flavor is combined in both sweet and savory dishes in the kitchen, all over the world. Nutmeg can be added to cream sauces, vegetables, stewed vegetables, fruit pies or as an aromatic garnish for hot drinks.
