Do you ever wonder what to do with those pumpkin seeds when making a pumpkin pie, or curry? We do! Pumpkin is a popular ingredient and we have quite a lot of dishes made with it at our restaurant. You can roast those pumpkin seeds, don't throw them in the compost. You can make them salty, sweet, savory, but we make them spicy as a healthy snack.
