We had butternut squash for dinner a couple of nights ago, and as I was scraping the seeds out, I thought I'd try roasting them with some seasoning........ They were delicious...... and to think I used to throw them away!!!

do you wash the seeds to get the 'gunk' off them or just roast them 'wet'

And how do you get the shells off? Or do you eat them?

re sunflower seeds, a quicker version I do is just to spread them on a baking sheet, sprinkle them with a little salt and bung them under the grill for a couple of mins. Make sure they don't burn!

:eek: Aaah, so sorry..... have chastised myself profusely for forgetting to check thread!:rolleyes:

Most of them weren't too gunky, but I did wash them, it didn't really come off, so just left them on a bit of kitchen roll until I put the oven on.

To get the shells off, you just bite the top of the seed sideways to split the shell, opens easily. Although after a few, a tried one with shell on, which tasted just as nice........ so ate the rest of them with out taking them out.
