Notes
Scaling the Recipe - This recipe can easily be scaled up (or down) depending on how many pumpkin seeds you have. I recommend measuring the seeds after they're dry, then double or triple the ingredients, as needed.
Cleaning the Seeds - To clean the seeds, brush off any seeds hanging from the pulp. Then squeeze the pulp to remove the remaining seeds. Once separated from the pulp, you can rinse the seeds in a fine mesh strainer. If the seeds are mostly clean though, you can skip this step.
