squash seeds
Pumpkin's inner treasure
Squash seeds are the flat, oval seeds found inside squash and pumpkins, typically surrounded by stringy pulp.
They're edible when roasted and salted, often saved from jack-o'-lantern carving: We roasted the squash seeds with olive oil and salt.
Gardeners also save them for planting next season.
