For about 2 years now, we have had a tradition of using the seeds from the pumpkins we carved to make roasted pumpkin seeds. This year, I was a little adventurous and made up two new recipes:

| The far left and right bowls are Olive Oil and Salt. The middle is the Sweet Halloween Pumpkin Seeds |
Olive Oil and Salt Roasted Pumpkin Seeds
- Rinse the seeds in water in a colander. Discard of the orang-ey pumpkin insides.
- Put the seeds on the baking sheet and roast in oven for 30 minutes to dry them up.
- Remove them from the sheet and place them in a bowl.
- Toss with desired amount of salt and olive oil
- Place back onto baking sheet and into the oven for 10 minutes of until golden brown.

oooh!,that's nice. I have heard they are super healthy. mmm, forgive my ignorance, do you peel them off the shell or after roasting they can be had just like that?
ReplyDeleteNo problem :)
DeleteThey can be eaten with the shell or without the shell, but the flavoring is all on the shell so if you ate them without the shell there would be no flavor to it. Also, shelling the pumpkin seeds is a tedious job, so it makes it easier to eat it shell and all!
