RE: Think SEEDS & NUTS are Boring Snacks? TRANSFORM Their FLAVOUR Like THIS!... (Weight Loss || Snacks for Children)
Toasted pepitas are fantastic! I am not great at carving pumpkins (that's more my boyfriend's domain), but I will happily scoop out the guts to get to the delicious seeds. ;)
I'm the opposite - scooping out seeds is one of my least favourite tasks! Especially butternut squash.. ugh... makes my wrist ache :-) But the effort sure is worth it!
I never heard them called pepitas, but I love the sound of that word and will use it from now on!!!
I could do without the scraping, but I do love the squishy feeling when you stick your hands inside the pumpkin, ha! It can be a pain to rinse off all of the guts to get to the seeds, though. Still worth it.
And pepitas totally sounds adorable, so I love using it, too. :)
It'd make a cute name the next time I find a stray kitten :-)
