Do you toast pumpkin seeds?

My mother toasted the pumpkin seeds every Halloween, and they were always salty, crunchy and fabulous. Whenever I tried as an adult myself, they came out salty, mushy and gross. Not this year! I plan on turning out an excellent batch. I think my problem was I was not roasting them long and slow enough.

I do toast pumpkin seeds every year at halloween. I toast them in the oven using real butter and a little bit of spiced salt....yummmmmmy!

We just toasted some today after we carved our pumpkin.

I never did until I married my husband. It is a big thing that his family does and he's very into it each year.

No I sure don't. sometimes I can't stand that I am so picky, miss out on a lot.

That is a ritual we do after the carving of the pumpkin. I use butter and some seasoning salt and roast them in the oven mmmmmmm they are good.

I love to toast the pumpkin seeds and put all kinds of crazy seasonings on them.

I remember there was a boy in my class in like grade 4 or so that would always have his mom toast pumpkin seeds for the Halloween party, they were pretty good actually.

I haven't done that since I was a kid. My dad always thinks he's going to toast them, but then he forgets about them.

mmm yes. I have before.

In art class when I was a little kid...mmm you made me want some now

I might if I would ever try them..

I buy pre-packaged ones because I can not be bothered to do it myself. I remmber as a child I hated them, but now I absolutly love them.

NO!

I haven't craved a pumpkin since I was about 19yrs old and when we did that time yes we roasted ours. I am not fond of them. I think it is a waste of time to clean them and roast them. I can't wait til the year to crave pumpkins with my oldest.

I've never done that, maybe I'll try it.

Gosh, I haven't thought about that in ages!! We used to as children. I go to my brothers house every Halloween and carve pumpkins and take his 3 children trick or treating, so this year, I may roast pumpkin seeds!! Thanks for the memory!
