The roasting process enhances their texture, making them pleasantly crunchy. The salt adds a savory element that complements the inherent taste of the seeds.

For baking, consider folding them into cookie dough or muffin batter. They make a great topping for savory dishes like roasted vegetables or even as a garnish for soups.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to raw pepitas, these are already roasted, which means they have a deeper, more developed flavor and a crispier texture. The added salt provides a savory profile that raw seeds lack, making them immediately palatable as a snack.

How to keep the rest
After opening, it is best to store the remaining pepitas in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. This will help maintain their crispness and prevent them from becoming stale. Ensure the container is sealed tightly to keep out moisture and air.
