Description

EHURU (WHOLE), also known as African Nutmeg or Calabash Nutmeg, is a highly aromatic spice native to West Africa, particularly Nigeria and Cameroon. Derived from the seeds of the Monodora myristica tree, Ehuru is a staple in traditional African cuisine, known for its warm, nutty, and slightly peppery flavor with hints of citrus and eucalyptus.

This whole spice is commonly used to season soups (e.g., Banga Soup, Ogbono), stews, pepper sauces, and rice dishes. It is often dry-roasted and ground before use to release its full, complex aroma. Beyond culinary applications, Ehuru is valued in herbal medicine for its digestive and anti-inflammatory properties.

Perfect for chefs, home cooks, and food enthusiasts seeking authentic African flavors, EHURU (WHOLE) delivers an unmatched depth of taste and cultural richness to dishes.
