Hey pumpkin carvers: Stop. Wait. Don’t waste all those yummy seeds! (Happy Halloween, by the way.) You can save those seeds from ending up in the garbage can with 4 easy steps:

1. SOAK THE SEEDS in water for a few hours. Fill a bowl with water, drop in the seeds and rub them between your fingers to start loosening up any attached pulp. Don’t worry about getting every last bit off, because soaking them for a while makes it easier to rub all the pumpkin-ey pulp off later.


2. DRY THE SEEDS
 on a towel for a few hours, or until they are dry to the touch.
