Oh yeah. Those are cool ideas too. I never thought about putting it in deserts like that. I will in future.

after reading this post
i went and made a milkshake with espresso coffee (freshly made of course), cold milk, sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg tonight, tasted good! could've added a bit more cinnamon mmmm thanks for the idea :)

The newest application I have found for fresh grated nutmeg is on baked butternut squash with a bit of butter and s&p.... so simple, but yet so tasty... the nutmeg really accents the soft flavor of the squash.

Hi Sattie! Very, very interesting idea to mix nutmeg and squash! I have to try it.

After reading this thread I got the idea of trying some nutmeg in hot chocolate ... Not so great :(

Then again, your mileage may vary...

Well it was worth a try.
Who know what good tasting combinations have not yet been discovered yet.

I put it into a small zipper bag and throw it into the back of my spice cupboard, on the top shelf, where I forget about it, so I end up buying new ones the next time I need some.

I use it for Fettincini Alfredo sauce

Freshly ground on top of a Painkiller please...
