Who is up for a little treat?
0:05
A little bite of something sweet?
0:08
I'm always up for a little bite of something sweet.
0:12
So I'm fixing to make
0:22
I'm speaking for an old person,
0:28
because Theresa told me that
0:33
we should have 30 grams of protein in each of our meals.
0:39
And the pumpkin seed are full of protein.
0:44
And so this is something that our body needs.
0:49
- [Theresa] And so we're gonna add sugar and butter
0:53
- Sugar, butter, and honey.
0:56
- [Theresa] To make it the way we like it.
0:58
- To make it where it tastes good and be good for us too.
1:01
- [Theresa] Absolutely.
1:03
- So, I've got a stick of butter
1:05
and it calls for unsalted but, I always use salted y'all.
1:10
- [Theresa] That is unsalted.
1:12
- [Paula] Oh, oh you did, you got unsalted?
1:13
- [Theresa] I brought some. - [Paula] Oh, from your house?
1:16
From the old lady's kitchen.
1:22
You so funny Theresa.
1:25
- [Theresa] I was thinking say the same thing about you.
1:30
So we are going to let that butter melt
1:34
and our pumpkin seeds have been roasted and salted
1:41
and they are delicious.
1:43
Our butter has melted
1:46
so I'm gonna add our brown sugar
1:50
(glass dishes clanking)
1:55
And we are gonna cook this until it becomes
1:59
almost an amber color
2:08
I'll have to check, I think 280 degrees.
2:13
And that'll take somewhere around five or six minutes.
2:17
So, but we are gonna let this cook without any stirring.
2:23
Once I get it mixed up, we will
2:26
not be stirring it for six minutes.
2:30
(spoon scraping against the pot)
2:36
To me it's already an amber color.
2:40
- [Theresa] It's all the same thing, but.
2:48
I'm gonna put my thermometer in
2:52
so we can keep an eye on it.
2:55
And like I said, about six minutes.
3:00
It's there, isn't it?
3:08
Perfect, and that took about six minutes.
3:11
Alright, I'm gonna add our salted and roasted
3:20
Some Pumpkin Pie Spice.
3:25
And we're gonna stir this together.
3:28
Oh, look how thick it's getting.
3:37
Spanish for pumpkin seeds, is that right?
3:40
- [Theresa] Probably its Spanish, but it's definitely
3:42
another name for pumpkins.
3:44
If you ever see the name for pepita,
3:45
it's referring to a pumpkin seed.
3:49
I'll have to ask my -
3:51
- [Theresa] Grandchildren.
3:52
- Yes, my grandchildren.
3:55
Because I'll try to say something in Spanish
3:57
and they look at me like I'm three eyed.
4:01
"You don't know how to say it, Gimmy!"
4:05
- [Theresa] What do we need this to go to?
4:06
- [Paula] We need to go to 300.
4:08
- [Theresa] Okay, so we'll be back.
4:10
- [Paula] and then we're gonna pour it out
4:12
onto that parchment paper and let it cool
4:16
and then we'll break it apart.
4:18
So, let me tell y'all something about a video I just shot
4:29
let's see, what would you call that, Theresa?
4:31
- [Theresa] What was, Pepita Brittle.
4:33
- Yeah, Pepita Brittle.
4:35
And pepita is Spanish for pumpkin, right?
4:40
Am I remembering that correctly?
4:41
- [Theresa] Pumpkin seeds.
4:43
Well, the other day when I shot the video,
4:47
they looked back at it
4:50
I never had an ending to it.
4:53
So, at that point in the video
4:55
I was fixing to pour it into a pan and let it harden.
4:59
So Theresa got in here in the kitchen
5:02
and she has made another batch
5:05
so that we can show y'all
5:09
what it looks like after it's hardened
5:11
and it's really, really good.
5:13
In fact, the day that I shot that video
5:15
we had company pop in that night
5:19
and they ate so much of this, didn't they Andy?
5:22
- [Andy] Yes, they did.
5:24
- Diane and her cousin.
5:25
So all you have to do is just break it up
5:27
in the size pieces that you want
5:33
and they're delicious.
5:36
So I'm glad we showed y'all the end of it
5:41
and I got to eat it again.
5:43
Love and best dishes, y'all.
