The Fine Flavor of Nutmeg

The aromatic secret of this "nut" is only revealed when you grate the nutmeg and its fine powder releases its extraordinary aroma: a warm and spicy scent, slightly bitter and sweet at the same time. Originally from the Moluccas, an island group in Indonesia, the nutmeg tree is now cultivated in Asia, Africa, South America, and on the Caribbean island of Grenada. The peach-like fruits of the nutmeg tree contain a seed kernel inside, the nutmeg. Botanically speaking, it is not a nut, but a seed.

Nutmeg is an essential ingredient in Asian and Middle Eastern cuisine. It is also a staple in European cuisine. Its spicy and sweet notes make it a wonderful addition to savory dishes as well as desserts. A pinch of nutmeg adds that "certain something" to many potato and vegetable dishes. Nutmeg is also a must-have in jams, compotes, and fruit cakes. Whether savory or sweet, less is more when it comes to this spice! Its intense flavor can otherwise become too dominant. However, the aromas are quickly fleeting - that's why you should grate the desired amount of nutmeg only when needed and add the spice shortly before serving. With a Peugeot nutmeg mill, you can work quickly, practically, and safely - without risking your fingers, as with an open grater.

The Peugeot Nutmeg Mill

Here's how it works: a metal claw presses the "nut" against the grinder. By turning the chamber, a sharp double blade grates the nutmeg into a fine powder. The patented grinder of the nutmeg mill is made of wear-resistant material. A special finish protects it from corrosion and dulling.

The remaining nutmeg can conveniently remain in the mill, as the transparent storage chamber is securely sealed with a magnetic closure. In addition to its function, we at Butch love the modern, stylish design of these nutmeg mills. You can choose between high-quality stainless steel, beech wood, or acrylic for the material.
