{"product_id":"aadhimalai-nutmeg-whole","title":"Nutmeg, Whole","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhole nutmeg from Aadhimalai's Nilgiris farms, sold as the intact seed rather than pre-ground — which is the right way to buy it, since nutmeg's aromatic oils start dissipating within hours of grinding and ground nutmeg is an easy place for cheaper fillers to hide. Grate it fresh and the difference is obvious. This comes from the same fruit as mace: the nutmeg is the inner seed, mace is the lacy red covering around it, and Aadhimalai sells both. Grown by indigenous farmer-shareholders of the Nilgiris Biosphere Reserve under an agroforestry system rather than monoculture plantation. Single ingredient, no processing aids. Works across both sweet and savoury cooking — a small grating into béchamel, kheer, or a meat curry. A standard food-safety note that applies to all nutmeg regardless of brand: in large quantities (several whole seeds) nutmeg has genuine psychoactive and toxic effects, so treat it as a spice, not a supplement.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aadhimalai","offers":[{"title":"50 gm","offer_id":49380296753411,"sku":null,"price":70.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false},{"title":"100 gm","offer_id":49380296786179,"sku":null,"price":130.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/purepicked.store\/products\/aadhimalai-nutmeg-whole","provider":"purepicked","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
