Frequently asked

Why buy whole rather than ground ehuru?

Whole seeds retain their aroma for longer than pre-ground powder, so crushing them fresh just before cooking delivers a stronger, more authentic flavour.

Is this the same as regular nutmeg?

No — ehuru, or African nutmeg, comes from a different plant to common nutmeg and has a more peppery, bitter aroma, used mainly in West African pepper soup.
