Mace

Mace comes from the thin, lacy-looking scarlet-colored shell which covers the small, plum-sized fruit of the nutmeg tree.  It is mainly grown in Indonesia.  The flavor is similar to nutmeg (Combination of cinnamon and pepper), but not quite as strong.  Ground mace in very small quantities is excellent added to pound cake, Swedish meatballs, doughnuts, stuffing, sweet potato pie, oyster stew and barbecue sauces. If you come across a recipe that calls for nutmeg when you only have mace available, or vice versa, it will work find if you substitute the other.
