What spice do you want June to tackle next? 👇

June is such a great addition to this channel, so please be patient with her as she processes and heals.

Sending June love for her loss ❤️

I love nutmeg I bought about 20 little round nuts in Barbados. I paid about 50 cents for them freshly picked by a guy that owns the tree. I have had them for about 20 years and the flavor is still just as strong as the day I bought them. I have a small grater that I use to scrape the nuts. I use them for my candied yams and sweet potato pies it goes great with anything you would use cinnamon with. This little ball should be scraped when you get ready to use it don’t scrape in advanced.. I guess that’s why I don’t like the grounded nutmeg from the store.. it’s alright but not like the real thing I have. It takes me about 2 years to use up one little pod. I also take the little pods when they get real small I just boil it and it makes the best air freshener and can be added to candles. It is also great in my cornbread dressing at Thanksgiving. A little goes along way so I believe all of the pods I have left will last me forever…I was AMAZED to find out how much the ground nutmeg cost in the store!!!

I add a teaspoon of freshly ground nutmeg to the melted butter and chocolate part of the ingredients in my brownie recipe and then I let it sit while I take care of combining and preparing the other things. Nutmeg blooms more thoroughly in fats than in other liquids and, when added to butter and chocolate, it takes on a euphoric quality that is incredibly addictive and appealing. My brownies rarely last more than an hour.

In Germany we use nutmeg in everything that contains cream or potatoes. for example mashed potatoes, cream sauce Try mashed potatoes with salt, pepper, milk, nutmeg and a piece of butter in it.

One of the best tips I ever followed was adding a little nutmeg to homemade chicken noodle soup. It adds just a little something that enhances the savory flavors while adding a whole new layer of flavor that marries in so well with everything else.

We love June! Bless her with compassion and love. Anything she does it great!!! ❤️❤️❤️

This was so well put together. I love the guests and their wealth of knowledge they shared, June's questions, and all her demonstrations. Delish, please continually praise this Queen (and all other contributors and staff) and treat them with the utmost dignity through word and salary. Thank you also for allowing the bereavement time that you do for your employees and sincerely ask not to pressure or demand anything from June any time soon. Thank you.

I learned from my mother and grandmother, that mashed potatoes, egg dishes, creamy soups, any sort of roux and bechamel sauce are not perfect, not complete without a little bit freshly grated nutmeg :) i have never used it in meat dishes, so i will try

Nutmeg in cheese sauce or bechamel is good. Also harmonize with milky dishes.

Germany is also using nutmeg a lot in potato dishes and we eat so many potatos even some people call us "Potatos". :D Some of us even own a special nutmeg grater (I got one too). And ... theres a film with Louis de Funes and the famous line "MUSKATNUSS, HERRRR MÜLLER! MUSKATNUSS!" ("Nutmeg, Mr Müller! Nutmeg!") XD For baked apples I can also recommend recipes with a filling made of marzipan (and other stuff). Really tasty! Nice video, June! I really appreciate the spiceshow because I'm a spice nerd. :)

In Puerto Rico during Christmas we made Arroz con Dulce. It’s a sweat rice with coconut milk and spices like cinnamon, cloves, ginger and of course nutmeg. Its delicious!!

In my experience nutmeg in Germany, and I was born and raised here, is used for stews and mashed potatos and leeks and cooked red cabbage. I love it in mashed potatos!!!

Thank you for this June! You make food… and our lives.. a lot more delish!

I always add a touch of grated nutmeg to a bechamel which i use to top cooked cauliflower, and as my mom taught me to use in most uses for bechamel.

We Indians use nutmeg in many things, specially in chai! Also if you drink nutmeg with milk at night it’ll will give you a good night sleep! And mace is use in different masala like garam masala, malvani masala, biryani masala and etc!

In France we use nut meg in mashed potatoes, always. Potatoes, butter, salt, pepper and nut meg.

Omggg omggg! Does this mean there is a budget Eats in the works?!? Is only but my favorite KZfaq food series

I can't describe the flavor because to me, it's more of a feeling. It reminds me of family get-togethers from years past.

I LOVE adding a smidgen of nutmeg in a lot of different dishes. It's truly a great flavor enhancer.

It's kinda surprising knowing that as the biggest producer of nutmeg, we Indonesian rarely, almost never, use this spice in our dishes. What I know even that we use the fruits and turn it into candied fruits.

Add nutmeg to greens like spinach, collards white cream sauces etc.

The cauliflower and nutmeg is something I grew up eating, and my family on my dutch side has a recipe called Bloemkool with nutmeg, and always added some brandy. Its nostalgic and delicious

Freshly grated Nutmeg over Bread Pudding before being put in the oven has always been a thing in my family; delicious!

Being Italian/Swiss... we ate Nutmeg in all our creme and meat dishes (not in sweet dishes ever). And when I became the Cook for an Organization my friends would never believe me when I wanted to add it to meats and such... So I explained it was like MSG. You don't put SO much that you actually taste it... That would be too much. But you should notice its ABSENCE only. It hits a kind of part of our pallets no other spice does and once you are used to it in your food, if it is missing, food will be bland. :)

I've always associated nutmeg with cinnamon. Then both spices with pumpkin pie lol. This video makes me want to try those recipes. Especially the one with apples!

"Germany is the world's largest consumer per capita" - yep, we love our nutmeg! I love a pinch of it (freshly grated) in my mashed potatoes.

This was legit fascinating. I didn’t know anything about it being the pit of a fruit.

My main use of nutmeg is in ricotta mix for filled pastas, I've never had stuffed shells but the ricotta mix in my lasagna or in my ricotta and spinach cannelloni isn't complete without a little pinch of nutmeg. I don't love nutmeg but it truly adds that special something when combined with soft, cheesy fillings. I love you June, I'm feeling terrible and I'm watching the spice show to make me feel better. It's working.

Love this. Please do ginger next!

i always add nutmeg to any cooked greens including spinach and collard greens. its delicious!

Lol. This is just the exact video I needed. That nutmeg sitting in my kitchen pantry is just waiting to be put into good use.

Will June do a class on its sister spice -- mace??

Sprinkle a bit of nutmeg in your French toast mixture. It is wonderful.

My mom also taught me how to make a sauce for artichokes, making a broth with water, a piece of onion, a bayleaf and a pinch of nutmeg, salt. With the broth make a lemon sauce thickened with an egg yolk. Season to taste. It is the BEST! Also using nutmeg, poach some ground meat with salt and nutmeg, using the water make a bechamel, add the meat and make croquettes.

Mizz June, i need to let you know that you are DISGUSTINGLY genius, with everything that you create! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

we have a nutmeg processed into candied like things to helps reduce insomnia, you should tried it sometimes its good. Nutmeg (pala) is one of the spice herbs which highly sought by westerners and directly induce colonization in my country, so that thing is that delicious, guyss

I love a small fine grate of nutmeg on my sautéed spinach.

Haha. "If your shells look hungry you probably will be too." Awesome as usual.😊 Nutmeg's flavor to me is what puts the 'comfort' in comfort food.

Amazing video with June as always, but you made me tear up talking about the stuffed shells making moms proud. I don't know how you hold it together so well. Thinking of you and so sorry for your loss 🙁

Sending positive energy and prayers to June!! Hope you are resting and healing 🤗🤗

salt pepper and nutmeg on a whole chicken basted with melted butter -this is the Dutch way to roast in the oven. amazing...

You should totally do a Budget Eats on using JUST canned things like fruit, veg, and meat, etc. Obviousy You can use regular spices, herbs, and condiments, but the main ingredients should only be canned. There are people out there that can only afford canned food. Growing up I was there and it sucked. I think it would be cool to do that.

Wow, i use nutmeg my whole life, yes we loves our netmeg in Germany. But i have learned a lot today, thanks 😀

I am so ready to make everything you just showed us!! I am so much more educated on nutmeg now thanks to your hardwork.

We pickle the fruit. It makes for a nice spicy crunchy pickle.

Oh yes, in France we use "quatre épices" all the time in savory dishes (it goes well with lamb), but I think it was originally made for "pain d’épice" (spiced bread), a dense honey-based cake. Apart from this, we don’t really have spice blends, although we do have herb blends, especially in the south.

I add a little nutmeg to my Alfredo.... I know it sounds weird but it makes it so much better

Oh girl. If you like that prune jam, you will also like something we call "povidla" in czech. I dont know, if it is possible to find in New York, but I bet that it would suprise you. It is spread or jammy thing made from plums baked for ages (sometimes overnight). Just plums, no sugar, no other things - well, recipes of czech or slovak grandmas tell to do that this way. Thiccc and sour and sweet. Besides this note, really thanks for your job. I like the fact that you look on things and ingredients from various perspectives and marry them in a very beautiful ways. Thanks

i always add nutmeg on my soup, it spice up the soup real good and somehow makes it warmer and taste healthier 😚 it also good to be added on baked creamy pasta and potato croquette 💕

A little bronze angel that bakes!! And we wonder why we dream of SEA. Thanks. Always fun cooking

Roasted vegetables (especially carrots) are quite delightful when combined with butter, salt, pepper and nutmeg - all to taste.

Interesting! I am German and grew up using nutmeg and mace for baking (cookies, pastries, gingerbread) and veggies... I don't think my mother and grandmother have ever used it for meatdishes (but as mentioned almost always in cauliflower dishes!)

I bet #Townsend will be all over this video!! Respect the Meg. 🤣

nummy warm deep woodsy earthy savory and sweet

Those shells look fantastic!!!

Adding the grower and the Burlap and Barrel rep to your usual June awesomeness hit this one out of the park. Thank you!!

I'm always here for June content

I've never used Nutmeg in savory things before! But I'm gonna have to start!

June's the only person on this planet that can make me look at boiled chicken and say "wow that looks so elegant and tasty"

What a beautiful fruit! I’m definitely going to use it more. Thank you for the info!

The word the guy was looking for when describing the taste of nutmeg is camphoraceous! I heard the word camphoraceous used to describe plants that have that "minty, eucalyptusy" medicinal fragrance and taste that's cooling and a bit numbing. Herbs like rosemary and even lavender have small amounts of camphor in them. :)

I have recently discovered I love nutmeg now! I always thought it was only good for like pumpkin pie. But I use it in a lot of really diverse dishes now. Just made chicken and dumplings tonight and put nutmeg in it haha.

Your prononciation of Quatre épices is perfect and lovely

its 3am but let me go make my nutmeg hot cocoa

Hi June, i am from Suriname. And i am a big fan. Can you please do a spicy ramen noodle japanese style. Looking foward. Thanks 🙏❤

i got msg because of june, and now i might get nutmeg and a microplane thingy. still, that tiny brain look is freaky. but i'm so curious about this spice that caused so many wars in indonesia and southeast asia. thanks, june and delish!

Seeing the titanium spork, and knowing I have the same titanium spork, makes me really want to make all these recipes so I can eat them with my titanium spork. Titanium spork is fun to say, and I don't care how much my friends make fun of me for saying it's great.

Junie, you are a gastronomic genius,you make me smile ,I’m a cranky old cowboy,not easily impressed, Thankyou for your zest for life.

We make the exact same pumpkin cheesecake for Thanksgiving every year in my family. Its easy and less time consuming than pumpkin pie (spend the time on the other foods instead!). So good to see it out there!

Love this June. You make all the food look Delish!!! ❤🤤

Freshly grated Nutmeg takes cooked spinach to a new level of delish !

June. How about some hiker backpack meal’s!

I'm enjoying this series. Yeah June 💜

I always put a shitload in my mashd potatoes and on cauliflower/broccoli, mac and cheese or any bechamel /cheese/ cream sauce

Nutmeg with creamed anything!!!!

Thanks June!! Try just a little nutmeg in your hot chocolate! Game changer!!

Nutmeg is GOAT. I LOVE it!!!

That's interesting. I've never had nutmeg jam but where I'm from, we use the Pericarp as a sweet pickle, or juice it. The maize of the nutmeg is said to be excellent in reducing blood sugar level. Usually the powder is added in curry dishes especially Indian cuisines.

The nutmeg education was very interesting. I’ve never bought nutmeg but I will now, and I’ll try it on everything from breakfast foods, baked goods and meats. 👍

I never make quiche without nutmeg, nor Alfredo sauce.

I was soooo looking forward for the Spice Show video 😍 I would suggest doing black truffle as the next spice... How about that? 😍🤩

Loved every recipe here by June. Yum. I need yo go find the nutmeg!

Any dish with kale or cabbage goes well wit a little nutmeg. Also try it in potato dishes

I heart nutmeg

JUNE!❤️

I had a little tiny jar of whole nutmegs with its own little mini-grater. Loved that little jar and its tiny little grater. And my then-boyfriend STOLE it from me when we broke up. (He loved it, too.) So hey, Mark Kuwayama, if you're out there, I know you have my little jar of nutmeg with its own little grater. I know it! I hope you're enjoying it.

Nutmeg in pancakes is good

I love adding freshly ground nutmeg anytime I make homemade Mac and cheese. It just brings that unexpected flavor and balance that is just delicious.

Nutmeg: normally perfumey (yes, a real word ;) ingredients either stand out or raise the "top end", but whenever I add nutmeg to things -- especially tomato sauces cream sauces -- they taste a lot more rounded and like you said, just MORE of what they already are. So much so you end up suspecting they're cheating at it. Which they are. But not really. But really. That's nutmeg. On the other hand, rice pudding has become a vehicle for enjoying nutmeg. I douse it with nutmeg these days.

I learned so much! Is there anything nutmeg doesn't go with?

June, such a gem 💎.

You need a video everday we love you

Jon Townsend approves of this video. :D

June my queen ❤ We await patiently for her majesty to mourn and heal

Looks like this is going to be our next ingredient obsession 🙈👍🏻

Sending Love June 💜💜💜💜💜💜

Those shells look exquisite
