Composition: Mace Powder. Mace, also called "nutmeg flower", is the spice obtained from the aril of nutmeg. It is the thin layer surrounding the nutmeg similar to the thin layer surrounding the walnuts of our countryside. More refined than nutmeg, it is used in cooking in savory, sweet-salty and also sweet dishes. Mace is associated with fine fish such as pike-perch, perch, but also with white meats (roast pork).
