7 g1 tablespoon
USDA FoodData Central standard measure for ground nutmeg is 2.2 g per level tsp.
Instead of Ground nutmeg
NutmegGrate whole nutmeg finely on a microplane; use 80% to 100% of the weight. Freshly grated nutmeg has significantly more aromatic oils and a more vibrant aroma.
Ground maceUse 100% to 120% of the weight. Mace is nutmeg's outer husk, providing almost identical warmth but with a lighter, slightly more delicate, floral edge.
Ground cinnamon (cassia)Use 75% of the weight. Adds comparable warmth and sweetness, though it lacks the musky, nutty undertone of nutmeg.
