I like to gently cook pumpkin seeds in salted water, then drain and pat dry before baking them in the oven at a low temperature. This method gets the actual kernel salted.
Can you use -any- and -all- pumpkins?? There are so many different sizes, shapes & colors for sale now! Thanks so much for your help!
Yes! They are all edible, so as long as the variety hasn’t been bred to produce fewer or smaller seeds, you can use any pumpkin variety you find. Note that the larger pumpkins generally have larger seeds, and larger seeds means a better seed to shell ratio!
Are you able to roast butternut squash seeds and eat them as well as pumpkin seeds. I have a large harvest of butternut coming this year.
Yes, Kyla, butternut squash seeds can be roasted and eaten just like pumpkin seeds. Fun fact—the same is true of watermelon seeds!
when you put olive oil on the seeds the scum separates and the oil cleaned them - imagine how easy
We never miss roasting the seeds!! It's one of the best parts of carving a pumpkin -- delicious and healthy.
