SC - Nutmegs, ground

[S.Albert]

Speaking of pomegranate chicken, in the recommended spice mixture in the
back of the book (The Medieval Kitchen that is,, in case I'm confusing
anyone), one of the ingredients is 1 whole nutmeg, ground.

We're cooking this recipe this coming Saturday, and I could fake it, but
does anyone know approximately how much ground nutmeg comes out of 1 whole
nutmeg? I have never seen a whole nutmeg to try to guess.

Many thanks.

PS: And yes, I'll post the menu (all from The Medieval Kitchen) and the
results after the feast....
