Thanks. I will check out the link. This address is one I don't mind
posting (with obfuscation): It is my first initial (dot)last name at

Here's something appropriate for the season:

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm)

   Title: Perfect Roasted Pumpkin Seeds
Categories: American, Snacks
Cooktime: 20 minutes
Preparation Time: 1/2 hour

          Seeds from one pumpkin
     1 ts Sea Salt or Herbamare Seasoned Salt (or less, according to taste)
     1 ts Olive Oil


  1. Clean the seeds. The annoying-but-necessary task is that you have
  to meticulously clean the seeds until there are no signs of pumpkin
  guts. After picking off the strands, give them a GOOD rinse with water
  in a colander. (Recipe author's side note - if someone comments
  telling me a quick way to clean pumpkin seeds, I will love you
  forever!!)


  2. Boil for 10 minutes in salt water. Using Elise's method for
  inspiration, I added the pumpkin seeds to a medium-sized pot of water
  along with 1 tsp salt. Bring it to a boil and reduce the heat to
  simmer, uncovered, for about 10 minutes over low-medium heat.
  Apparently, this method helps make the pumpkin seeds easier to
  digest and produces a crispy outer shell during roasting.


  3. Drain the seeds in a colander and dry lightly with a paper towel
  or tea towel. The seeds will stick to the towel, but just rub them off
  with your fingers. Don't worry, they don't have to be bone dry –
  just a light pat down.


  4. Spread seeds onto a baking sheet and drizzle with extra virgin
  olive oil (I only needed to use about 1/2-1 tsp). Massage oil into
  seeds and add a generous sprinkle of Herbamare (or fine grain sea salt
  will do). Try to spread out the seeds as thin as possible with minor
  overlapping.


  5. Roast seeds at 325F for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and stir.
  Roast for another 8-10 minutes (if your oven temp is off, this could
  vary a lot!). During the last 5 minutes of roasting, remove a few
  seeds and crack open to make sure the inner seeds are not burning (you
  donâ€Öt want the inner seed brown). Cool a couple and pop them into
  your mouth to test. They are ready when the shell is super crispy and
  easy to bite through. The inner seed should have only a hint of golden
  tinge to it. They should not be brown.


  6. EAT! Remove from oven, add a bit more Herbamare, and dig in!
  There is no need to remove the outer shell; it's quite possibly the
  best part.

  I had no idea I was going to love freshly roasted pumpkin seeds so
  much. I love how crispy the outer shell is and how fun it is to
  crunch. They taste a bit like popcorn, but they are much crunchier,
  filling, and of course packed with nutrition.


  Yes, pumpkin seeds are super healthy for you! They are packed with
  iron, magnesium, fiber, zinc, potassium, healthy fats, protein, and
  tryptophan (which can boost your mood and help you sleep). Vegans &
  vegetarians have been using pumpkin seeds for years as a natural
  source of iron. Be sure to pair it with Vitamin C to absorb the most
  iron you can.


  Note: Some of you say that sugar pumpkin seeds yield much crispier
  seeds than carving pumpkins. I used sugar pumpkin seeds and mine were
  certainly super crispy!


MMMMM

The soak before roasting is optional. With our convection oven, I can
skip this step. A little bit of ground chipotle or cayenne pepper adds a
nice zing to these.
