Nutmeg has a long history of use in Asia, but it was a rare commodity in Europe until the Portuguese discovered the Maluku Islands of Indonesia as a major source. Once introduced to England in the 16th century, nutmeg was widely used to flavor cordials, mutton stew, meat pies and puddings. Today, nutmeg is more commonly used to add warm spice to baked goods and hot breakfast cereals. Of course, it’s also a key ingredient in pumpkin pie spice and mulling spice blends.
