How do you use mace in cooking?

Flavor-wise, mace spice is often described as a less intensely concentrated version of nutmeg, though it also has notes of cinnamon and black pepper. Like nutmeg, mace is typically used in baking\u2014where those warm notes bridge the savory and sweet in rich foods like donuts, cakes, and sweet potato or pumpkin pie.

What do you use the seasoning mace for?

It's often used in spice blends for flavoring meat dishes, stews, curries, savory sauces, homemade pickles, and is a common ingredient in Indian cuisine. The flavor can become bitter if it's cooked too long, so it's best to add mace toward the end of cooking as a finishing spice.

Does mace taste like nutmeg?

Everyone says mace is lighter, subtler, and sweeter than nutmeg. This is all true, but doesn't really capture the essence of what mace is like. Imagine a cross between nutmeg and coriander, tinged with citrus and cinnamon. Add to that the same nostril-widening properties that nutmeg, mint, and basil share.

Is allspice the same as mace?

It is most commonly sold ground, though you may find whole pieces called blades. Mace is usually considered to have a slightly more pungent flavour than nutmeg but grated nutmeg would be the closest substitute. Otherwise ground allspice would be a slightly stronger alternative.
