pumpkin seeds

Earlier in another post I talked about pumpkin seeds and different seasonings to add to them for a tasty snack. after carving pumpkins a couple days ago my family and I tried out some of our own seasonings. we carved 4 pumpkins total so we had a lot of seeds to bake. we started by drying out the seeds by sticking them in the oven for 20 minutes on a lightly oiled pan. in a large mixing bowl we added oil and salt for the original seeds and hen to try out a new flavor we added parmesan and oregano. the amount of each seasoning depends of your preference. then you add the seeds into the bowl and evenly mix all of it together. then after speeding the seeds back onto the pan evenly you put them back into the oven for another 20 minutes or until golden brown at 300 degrees. a tip for baking even regular pumpkin seeds is to soak them in the seasonings or salt before baking them. this of course takes more time but from experience you can taste the seasonings and salt much better when they are soaked for a while before baking.
