Ingredients

* One medium sized pumpkin
* Salt
* Olive oil

Method

1 Preheat oven to 400°F!. Cut open the pumpkin and use a strong metal spoon to scoop out the insides!. Separate the seeds from the stringy core!. Rinse the seeds!.

2 In a small saucepan, add the seeds to water, about 2 cups of water to every half cup of seeds!. Add a tablespoon of salt for every cup of water!. Bring to a boil!. Let simmer for 10 minutes!. Remove from heat and drain!.

3 Spread about a tablespoon of olive oil over the bottom of a roasting pan!. Spread the seeds out over the roasting pan, all in one layer!. Bake on the top rack until the seeds begin to brown, 10-20 minutes!. When browned to your satisfaction, remove from the oven and let the pan cool on a rack!. Let the seeds cool all the way down before eating!. Either crack to remove the inner seed (a lot of work and in my opinion, unnecessary) or eat whole!.

I just roasted mine last night (I also carved a jack o' lantern)!.

I separate the orange membrane from the seeds by rinsing them in several changes of warm (not hot) water!. Drain the seeds in a colander, and put them in a large bowl!.

Add 1 cup of salt to 2 cups of water, and bring the water to a boil!. When the water boils, pour the water over the pumpkin seeds, and allow them to "steep" in the saltwater for about 30 minutes!. Then drain them again, and spread them out on newspaper or paper towels to allow them to dry!.

Grease a baking sheet (use one with a raised edge, so the seeds don't fall off), and spread the seeds out in a single layer!. I use PAM-type cooking spray for this!. Put the sheet in a 350 degree oven for 1 hour!. Remove the sheet and shake to re-distribute the seeds after 30 minutes!.

By the end of the hour, you should be able to hear the seeds begin to pop, a lot like popcorn!. They're done!Www@FoodAQ@Com

1!. Do a mediocre job of separating the goo and guts from the actual seeds!. Don’t rinse them or they won’t taste as good!.
2!. Add salt to the seeds!. I suggest 1 teaspoon for every 2 cups of seeds!.
3!. Add the melted butter!. I use 1 tablespoon!.
4!. Mix the salt (and/or seasonings), melted butter and seeds and then spread them on the baking sheet!.
5!. Roast them at 300 degrees for about 30 minutes!. Stir them halfway through!.
6!. Take them out and eat them!.

Mix them in a bowl with something to make them damp (water, spray-butter or olive oil) and some *seasonings!. Stir until all seeds are coated!.

*Seasonings can be sweet (like cinnamon sugar, maple syrup, honey, brown sugar, ginger, nutmeg, etc!.) or non-sweet (cajun spice, garlic salt, cheese powder, lemon pepper, tabasco sauce, etc!.)

Spread them into a single layer on a (non-stick or coated) cookie sheet and bake for 20 minutes at 300 degrees F!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
