About Salted dried pumpkin seeds

Salted dried pumpkin seeds, often known as pepitas, are a popular snack and cooking ingredient with roots in cuisines worldwide, particularly Central and South America. These seeds are harvested from pumpkins, cleaned, soaked in brine, and gently roasted or sun-dried to achieve their signature crunch and salty taste. Packed with nutrients, pumpkin seeds are a potent source of healthy fats, plant-based protein, fiber, and essential minerals like magnesium, zinc, and iron, which support bone health, immunity, and energy production. They also contain antioxidants that may help combat inflammation and promote heart health. However, the addition of salt can contribute to higher sodium intake, so moderation is key for those monitoring their sodium levels. Whether enjoyed as a snack or added to salads, granola, or baked goods, salted dried pumpkin seeds combine flavor with wholesome benefits, making them a versatile and nutritious pantry staple.
