ABOUT  

 

Pumpkin seeds, also known as “pepita” in Mexican Spanish, are flat, edible egg-shaped seeds. On the outside, they have a dark green covering, but the seeds are off-white on the inside. They’re regarded as healthy and nutrient-dense. Pumpkin seeds are often available as roasted, and they make a delicious grab on snack or addition to a range of cuisines. Each bite will have a toasty, nutty flavour and plenty of crunch. Pumpkins are named after the Greek word ‘pepon,’ which means ‘big melon. Pumpkins are a type of squash with seeds that were previously discarded but are now considered equally suitable for consumption due to their nutritional benefits. 

 

HISTORY 

 

In the Oaxaca Highlands of Mexico, archaeologists discovered the world’s oldest domesticated pumpkin seeds. Over 7,500 years ago, pumpkins are thought to have originated in Central America. The initial pumpkins didn’t look anything like the lovely, vivid orange varieties we’re used to seeing. Small, hard, and bitter, the first pumpkins were small and hard. Pre-Columbian people planted pumpkins for their flesh rather than using their nutritious and readily available seeds. They were one of the first crops cultivated in North America for human use. Pumpkins were great for storage during cold weather during times of scarcity because of their strong, thick flesh.
