Welcome to the Bath County Farmers Market!

 New!! A Recipe to Try with Local Produce

Toasted Pumpkin Seeds

Ingredients

  • One medium sized pumpkin                                               
  • Salt
  • Olive oil

Method             

1 Preheat oven to 400°F. Cut open the pumpkin and use a strong metal 

spoon to scoop out the insides. Separate the seeds from the stringy core.

Rinse the seeds.

2 In a small saucepan, add the seeds to water, about 2 cups of water to 
every half cup of seeds. Add a half tablespoon of salt for every cup of water
(more if you like your seeds saltier). Bring to a boil. Let simmer for 10 minutes.
Remove from heat and drain.

3 Spread about a tablespoon of olive oil over the bottom of a roasting pan. 
Spread the seeds out over the roasting pan, all in one layer. Bake on the top
 rack until the seeds begin to brown, 10-20 minutes. When browned to your
 satisfaction, remove from the oven and let the pan cool on a rack. Let the seeds
 cool all the way down before eating. Either crack to remove the inner seed (a lot of work and in my opinion, unnecessary) or eat whole.
