Mace  
This spice tastes and smells like a pungent version of  
nutmeg, and for a very good reason . . . mace is the  
bright red membrane that covers the nutmeg seed. After  
the membrane is removed and dried it becomes a  
yellow−orange color. It's sold ground and, less  
frequently, whole (in which case it's called a "blade").  
Mace is used to flavor all manner of foods, sweet to savory.
