(Myristica Fragrans)

The Aroma and flavor of mace recall netmeg, but Mace is a bit more delicate and ethereal.  Mace is the dried, lacy covering of the nutmeg seed. It's used in soups, stuffing, puddings and baked goods for flavoring and in light-colored sauces for its lovely, saffron-like color.  It is equally appropriate for sweet and savory applications.
