Introduction
The nutmeg tree is a native of the Banda Islands, a cluster of small volcanic islands historically known as the Spice Islands and now part of the province of Molucca in Indonesia. Nutmeg isn't really a nut, but the kernel of an apricot-like fruit. The closely related is an arillus, a thin leathery tissue between the stone and the pulp.

Parts Used
The "nut" (aril), ground to a fine powder. Buy powdered nutmeg from a reputable source that guarantees that the powder is not made from previously BWP (broken-wormy-punky) nuts. It's also better not to use an irradiated product. Irradiating nutmeg breaks down the fatty acids that contain the essential oils that give nutmeg its aroma and flavor. Avoid irradiated nutmeg for best quality.
Typical Preparations
Most popularly added to food in either ground, chopped or powdered form. May also be taken as a tea or extract.
Precautions
Nutmeg is a very weak hallucinogen; and whole nuts have been used to produce "trips".
This dosage of nutmeg can cause some very unpleasant side effects, notably prolonged nausea. However perfectly fine when used as a common spice.
