- 12 cup raw pumpkin seeds
- 12 cup raw sunflower seeds
- 13 cup olive oil
- 3 garlic cloves, smashed peeled
- 12 teaspoon ground szechuan peppercorns
- 14 teaspoon ground ginger
- 14 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
- 12 teaspoon salt
- 12 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a bowl, toss the pumpkin and sunflower seeds with the olive oil, garlic, Sichuan pepper, ginger, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
- Spread the seeds and smashed garlic mixture out on a single layer on a sheet pan.
- Roast for 15 minutes then remove the sheet tray from the oven to give the seeds a good stir.
- Place back in the oven to roast for another 10 to 20 minutes, until golden brown on top.
- Keep an eye on the sunflower seeds to gauge doneness.
