Day 14
#spooktober
I usually like roasting my pumpkins seeds in a frying pan with salt, pepper, paprika and a little cayenne. Did you know that you can do the same with squash seeds? If your family ever cooks wtih butternut squash, try cooking it’s seeds the same way. They look and taste just like pumpkin seeds, but smaller.
The hint for today was “From the depths of a corpse you take the children, only to scatter them on searing metal and devour them whole. Their bones crunch with the grinding of your jaws.”
Today’s topic is “Pumpkin Seads,” roasted or otherwise.
A couple people guessed correctly, though @Abstract_Mazie had it right first!
