Perfect Pumpkin Seeds Recipes

Steps:

• Place the pumpkin seeds in a container with a lid, and mix in the Worcestershire sauce, hot pepper sauce, bacon grease, and liquid smoke flavoring. Cover the container, and allow to stand overnight.
• Preheat the oven's broiler, and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
• Remove the seeds from the flavorings with a slotted spoon, and transfer into a bowl. Mix the cayenne pepper and garlic salt into the seeds, and stir to coat well. Spread the seeds over a baking sheet in a single layer. Sprinkle with additional salt.
• Roast the seeds under the broiler until toasted and golden brown, about 8 minutes; turn the seeds over twice during broiling. Cool to room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Toss seeds in a bowl with the melted butter and salt. Spread the seeds in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake for about 45 minutes or until golden brown; stir occasionally.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
• Mix pumpkin seeds, oil, garlic, salt, cayenne, and black pepper together in a bowl and spread in a single layer on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven, turning every 10 minutes, until dried, about 45 minutes.

Steps:

• Set oven to 400 degrees.
• Set oven rack to middle position.
• Cut open the pumpkin.
• Use a strong metal spoon to scoop out the insides of the pumpkin.
• Separate the seeds from the stringy core.
• Rinse the seeds under cold water.
• In a small saucepan add in the seeds to the water and salt (the amount of water and salt you will need is listed in the heading) bring to a boil and let simmer for 10 minutes (set timer to for this, and start timer when water is at a full boil).
• Remove from heat and drain well.
• Place on a paper towel and pat the seeds fairly dry (they do not have to be completely dry!).
• Brush about 1 tablespoon olive oil in the bottom of a cookie/baking sheet.
• Spread out the seeds onto the cookie/baking sheet in one layer.
• Bake for about 20 minutes or until the seeds begin to brown.
• When the seeds are browned to your liking then remove from oven and let the pan cool on a rack.
• Sprinkle with salt if desired.
• Either crack open to remove the inner seed or eat whole.
