    Culinary advice


    If using raw pumpkin seeds, rinse and peel them. Place them on a baking sheet lightly coated with cooking spray in a preheated oven at 120°C (250°F). Bake the seeds for about 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes. The seed will remain inside the shell, but the shell will also be edible.
