Pumpkin seeds, which have a pleasant taste, are a favorite delicacy of many. In addition, peeled pumpkin seeds are included in many dishes.

They also have one drawback - namely the process of getting rid of the husk, which, admittedly, takes a lot of time and requires some effort.

However, there are a few clever tricks that will help you cope with this hated task much faster.

1. Tongs

To clean pumpkin seeds, you can use special tweezers designed for cracking nuts. Just gently press the seed with them, and the seam will open.

2. Cooking

You can make the shell softer by boiling pumpkin seeds. Boil the required amount of water and throw the seeds into the pot. According to housewives who have tried this method, the shell will fall off on its own during the boiling process.

3. Rolling pin

For this method, you first need to crush the seeds with a rolling pin, then transfer them to a large bowl filled with water. Stir the contents of the bowl well so that the water washes away the shell from the kernels.
