Mc Currie Mace Powder is ground mace, sold in a 1kg pack for kitchens and heavy home use. Mace is the dried, lacy red covering (aril) that wraps the nutmeg seed; once dried it turns orange-brown, and ground it becomes a soft, golden powder.
Mace tastes like a lighter, more delicate nutmeg, warm and slightly sweet. It is often paired with other aromatic spices in blends and used in both sweet and savoury cooking.
