How To Roast Pumpkin Seeds

Pumpkins are a key ingredient in some wonderful recipes, notably pumpkin pie and pumpkin soup - not to mention jack-o'lanterns - but what can you do with the seeds? Roast 'em!


Cleaning Pumpkin Seeds

Scoop out the seeds and pulp from the pumpkin.
Place in colander.
Under cold running water, remove the seeds from the pulp and strings.
Pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.

Roasting Pumpkin Seeds

Preheat oven to 300.
Combine 1 T oil or melted butter plus ½ t salt per cup of seeds. If you like, you can add other spices like pepper, paprika, and/or garlic.
Toss seeds with oil mixture until well coated.
Spread evenly on a cookie sheet.
Bake until golden, about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Let cool on paper towels.

Roasted pumpkin seeds make a great snack and can also be added to soups and salads.

Answer 3

Clean them off so there isn't pumpkin goo on them, sprinkle with a little salt, and put them in at 350F or so. (Be careful since toaster ovens tend to be hotter than they say). Shake the tray and make sure they aren't sticking. After about ten minutes start paying attention to whether this great toasty smell is coming from the oven. The time depends on how wet they were so there isn't a specific number. If they are starting to smell they are close to done. Take one out with a spoon and see if it seems to have a hard shell. If it does crack it open and see if it tastes done. It isn't rocket science so if it seems done, that is it. Take them all out and go for them.

Sorry that is as fast as I could reply.
