Prep notes

The seed. Warm, sweet, fatty for a spice. A grate, not a teaspoon — more than a pinch is unpleasant. Mace is the aril of the same fruit.

Season

Year-round grocery when this catalogue row is listed as common / pantry.

Caution

Grocery / shop food data only. Not a wild forage guide. Thrive shows composition curiosity — not medical advice.
