Every day is Halloween in Russia: children beg for food and unholy creatures roam the streets dressed as humans (or should it be the other way around? 🤔)
It's too late anyway, so this thing is going to become soup!

This pumpkin is awesome! I didn't even have to scrub the insides, it just peeled off like it's an orange. This is the first time I see something like this. And it smells wonderful! 😋

@m0xee You don't need to peel the skin off Hokkaido pumpkins, it's edible.

You can also pluck the seeds from the inner tissue, then wash, water overnight in saltwater, marinate in (olive) oil and roast in the oven. Et voilà, pumpkin seed snack. Not everyone's taste but worth a try.

Ha, it's actually quite popular in Russia! Not as popular as sunflower seeds, but there are a dozen of brands, every supermarket has them. I guess that's why no one bothers making them at home. I've never tried homemade ones, now that I think of it… I have to! Thanks for the idea!
