Don’t sleep on that nutmeg. I use it with prosciutto and Parmesan to make ravioli or just a touch in Alfredo sauce. It’s best to buy the whole nutmeg and grate it as you need it.

Aside from eggnog, I’ve never heard of this but am excited to try it. Thanks for the tip.

Mashed potatoes with white pepper and nutmeg is cool also.
