Smoky pumpkin seeds

These tasty pumpkin seeds, known as pepitas (peh-PEE-tahs) in Spanish, are a wonderful snack when simply roasted and even more compelling in this application. These seeds are first tossed with liquid smoke, an easy to find substitute for smoking with wood. This method adds loads of flavor and cuts the difficulty and time to prepare this snack dramatically. Worcestershire sauce adds a mildly sweet zing and the dried spices round out the flavor. So delicious, these seeds are great to keep on hand for your own snacks and add a great conversation piece to any party. Easy to prepare and ready in under an hour, you can store these in an airtight container to keep them fresh.
