I had to look up mace. Never heard of that one.
mace-An aromatic spice made from the dried, waxy, scarlet or yellowish covering that partly encloses the kernel of the nutmeg.
Does it taste similar to nutmeg?
I haven't heard of it either. It sounds like it but don't take my word for it.
Hank Williams Jr.'s Cajun Rice Casserole
1/2 pound bacon
1 large onion, chopped
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon onion salt
1/2 pound okra, trimmed and cut into small pieces
2 (16 ounce) cans tomatoes with juice
1 (10 ounce) can Ro-tel tomatoes and green chiles
3 tablespoons dried parsley flakes
Salt and pepper to taste
Rice
Fry bacon in skillet and drain. Cool; crumble into small pieces. Set aside for serving.
Sauté onions in bacon grease until golden. Add garlic salt, onion salt, okra, tomatoes, Ro-tel, parsley flakes, salt and pepper. Mix well. Simmer uncovered 1 1/2 hours.
Meanwhile, prepare rice according to package directions. Serve cooked mixture over rice. Top with crumbled bacon.
Similar, but mace is somewhat sharper, stronger, and less sweet than nutmeg.
