{"product_id":"nut-meg-10089","title":"NUT MEG","description":"\u003cp\u003eMiller Stores’ Whole Nutmeg brings a warm, sweet, and slightly nutty flavor to both sweet and savory dishes. A little goes a long way—grate it fresh to elevate desserts, curries, or hot beverages with its distinct aroma and exotic touch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!--story--\u003e\u003c!--faqs--\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"faqs\"\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eWhy do you sell Nut Meg whole rather than ground?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"a\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe volatile oils that carry aroma start escaping the moment a spice is broken.

We will mill it while you wait. Most customers buy whole and grind small quantities at home, but we are happy to do it either way.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eHow should Nut Meg be stored?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"a\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn an airtight jar, cool, dark and away from steam. A jar kept on the shelf above the hob ages far faster than one in a cupboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eHow can I tell whether Nut Meg is fresh?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"a\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eCrush a little between your fingers and smell it. Fresh spice releases aroma immediately and strongly.

Whole spice holds its aroma for a year or more because the oils stay sealed inside; once ground, the same spice is noticeably flatter within a few weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eCan I toast Nut Meg before grinding, and does that change how long it keeps?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"a\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eToasting deepens the flavour and is worth doing just before you grind. It does shorten the life of the spice though, so toast only what you are about to use rather than a whole batch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eWhat makes Nut Meg from Miller Stores different?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"a\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe buy whole and sell whole, cleaned and sorted, with nothing added - no oil polish to make it glossy, no colour, no bulking material.
