Description
Whole washers – 50g and 100g
Whole slices, also called Monodora myristica or African nutmeg, are an emblematic spice of Central and West African cuisines. This fruit, dried naturally, is distinguished by its warm, woody and slightly camphorous scent. Its unique taste, close to nutmeg and clove, subtly enhances many traditional dishes.
In African recipes, the slices are used whole or slightly crushed. They are often added at the start of cooking, particularly in sauces, broths, or simmered dishes. They go perfectly with other spices such as pèbé, 4 sides or djansang. Thus, they form the aromatic base of emblematic dishes such as Ndolé or Cameroonian yellow sauce.
Whole slices also allow you to better control the intensity of the flavors in your preparations. By toasting them lightly, you release more flavor. By crushing them at the right time, you maintain their freshness. This flexibility appeals to both home cooking enthusiasts and chefs seeking authenticity.
Our washers are 100% natural. They contain no preservatives or additives. Each batch is carefully selected then packaged in France to guarantee quality and traceability. You can keep them for up to 12 months in a closed jar, away from light and humidity.
This product is aimed at all those who want to find the original flavors in their kitchen. Thanks to their aromatic richness, the slices give character to each dish, without ever overwhelming it.
