Nutmeg Nutmeg and Mace - Myristica fragrans Scent: Rich, sensual, spicy Description:     The trees that produce nutmeg and mace are both large evergreens native to the Moluccas. Nutmeg oil is steam-distilled from the crushed nuts. Mace oil is steam-distilled from the arils. They are both very pale yellow and fluid.     A large tropical evergreen growing on average to 12 m (40 ft) and reaching as high as 20 m (66 ft). The bark is a dark grey-green which produces a yellow juice which oxidizes to red. It is thickly branched with dense foliage with tough, dark green, oval leaves about 10 cm (4 in) long. The trees are dioecious, meaning it has separate male and female plants, both being required for fertilization. It has small, light yellow bell-shaped flowers. The pale yellow fruit is a drupe, grooved like an apricot, splitting along the groove when ripe to expel the seed. It prefers the rich volcanic soils and hot, humid conditions of the tropics. Nutmegs are propagated by seeds in nursery beds and after about six months they are transplanted to the plantation. It takes five years for the trees to flower, so that the sex can be determined and the males can be thinned out, leaving the optimum situation of one male for every ten females. Full bearing occurs after 15 years and the trees continue to bear fruit for about fifty years. A single mature tree produces up to 2,000 nutmegs per year. The fruit is often collected with a long pole with a basket attached (resembling a lacrosse stick), to pick the fruit from this trees. In Indonesia this is called a gai gai. When the fruit is harvested the seed is removed, then the mace from the seed. The mace is flattened between boards and the seeds dried until they rattle, when they are shelled. Uses:     Add a few drops of oil to a bath to overcome frigidity and nervous tension. The fragrance creates a warm atmosphere, and it also helps to relieve depression and mental fatigue. Nutmeg is a heart tonic, and it can help relieve premenstrual pain. It is also used to facilitate digestion.     Used in small dosages nutmeg can reduce flatulence, aid digestion, improve the appetite and treat diarrhea, vomiting and nausea. Nutmeg’s flavour and fragrance come from oil of myristica, containing myristicin, a poisonous narcotic. Myristicin can cause hallucinations, vomiting, epileptic symptoms and large dosages can cause death. These effects will not be induced, however, even with generous culinary usage. Qualities: Analgesic, aphrodisiac, narcotic, tonic (nervous system, heart), soothing
