Instructions

Heat oven to 300ºF. Rinse seeds well and get as much of the pumpkin pulp off of them as possible. Pat dry with paper towels. Toss pumpkin seeds with seasonings. Combine butter and Worcestershire sauce; stir into the seeds until well-blended and coated. Roast in the oven, turning from time to time, for about 45 to 60 minutes or until nicely browned and crunchy. Double or triple this recipe, depending on how many cups of seeds you have. Toss a salad with these seeds, sprinkle over a chicken dish, or serve as a snack.
