The best way to use those seeds from the Halloween jack-o-lanterns! Spicy! Time to prepare does not include time to clean and dry the pumpkin seeds. Ingredients:
2 cups pumpkin seeds |
1/4 cup melted butter |
1/2 teaspoon tabasco sauce |
1 teaspoon cayenne |
1/2 teaspoon cumin |
2 teaspoons chili powder |
1 teaspoon salt, to taste |
Directions:
1. Clean the seeds of pumpkin strings with water, then spread out to dry thoroughly before proceeding. 2. Drying will probably take a day, at least. 3. Preheat oven to 300°F. 4. Combine melted butter with the Tabasco, cayenne, cumin and chili powder. 5. Place pumpkin seeds in a small bowl and pour butter mixture over; stir to coat seeds thoroughly. 6. Spread in a single layer on a non-stick baking sheet. 7. Sprinkle with salt to taste. 8. Bake 45 minutes, stirring once to turn the seeds about half-way through baking. 9. Let cool completely- they'll be more crispy that way. 10. Store in air-tight container. |
