An average sized pumpkin will make about one in a half cups of seeds. With Halloween coming pumpkins are available like no other time of year. So please – go to it and enjoy!
The Ingredients To Harvest
- Seeds from one pumpkin
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper
Preparation To Follow:
- Scrape seeds and any attached fibers from pumpkin using a large metal spoon. Place seeds in a colander and rinse well to help separate seeds from fibers. Set seeds aside.
- Cook seeds in a medium saucepan of boiling salted water until beginning to look translucent, 5-7 minutes. Drain and transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet; pat well to dry.
- Preheat oven to 425°. Spread seeds on a rimmed baking sheet, toss with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast until golden and crisp, 12—15 minutes. Let cool completely.
