Nutmeg does not dissolve in water because it is a spice composed mainly of essential oils and a fibrous matrix, which are not water-soluble. When added to water, nutmeg tends to float or settle at the bottom rather than fully dissolving. However, it can release some flavor and aroma into the water, especially when heated. For better infusion, it is often recommended to use nutmeg in powdered form or in combination with fats or alcohol.
