Description
Great bonus from the pumpkins we carve for decorations in the Fall.
Ingredients
| pumpkin seeds - washed | ||
| 5 | c | cold water |
| 1⁄2 | c | salt |
Instructions
After thoroughly washing the seeds, put them in a pot with the 5 cups of water and the salt. Boil for 45 minutes. Strain off the water and place on a cookie sheet (do not over-crowd) and roast in a 300 F oven until done. They are usually done when they start to "pop" or the shells begin to separate from the seed.
Notes
Note: I make these for Himself without the salt in the water to make them sodium-free.
