Nutritional Benefits
Ground pumpkin seed (pepita molida) is milled from whole pepitas and is naturally rich in plant protein, healthy fats, and minerals such as magnesium, iron, and zinc. It adds a nutty flavor and creamy body to sauces and is gluten-free, plant-based, and vegan.
How to Cook
Toast the ground pepita gently in a dry pan to deepen its nutty aroma, then whisk it into warm broth or blend it with tomatillos and chiles for a smooth sauce. Simmer gently and stir often, since seed-based sauces can thicken quickly and scorch. Adjust the liquid to reach the body you want for pipián or mole verde.
