3) Cut open the pumpkin with a sharp serrated knife at an angle
4) Use a spoon to scoop out the seeds and pulp and placeseeds and strings in one bowl and the large chunks of flesh in another bowl – you can discard or use in other recipes
5) Place the seeds in a colander and run cool water over the seeds to clean them OR Cover the seeds with water and swish the bowl around to remove the excess pumpkin pieces (the seeds will float and the flesh will sink to the bottom but you may have to help separate some the strings from the seeds)
6) Place seeds on a cloth towel to pat off excess water (some seeds may stick to the towel so do not use paper towel or you will have paper stuck to your seeds)
7) Toss the seeds with olive oil and your favorite seasoning
