Nutmeg (Myristica fragrans), known as jaiphal in India, originated in Indonesia's Banda Islands (Spice Islands) with evidence of use dating back 3,500 years. The hard seed yields warm, nutty, sweet spice for garam masala and desserts, while its lacy aril produces mace; it sparked brutal colonial trade wars.
