Clearspring Snack Organic [1] Tamari Roasted Styrian Pumpkin Seeds are large, dark green and exceptionally rich in flavour and nutrition.
They are the finest Styrian Gold variety of pumpkin seeds, organically grown in Austria, which are prized for their unique flavour and abundance of fatty acids. They have been lightly coated in Clearspring’s very own organic tamari.
Styrian pumpkins are unusual in producing naked seeds - with no tough outer shell - that at harvest time are simply removed from the pumpkin in the fields. The seeds are then cleaned, dried and lightly roasted in small batches to draw out their flavour and produce their characteristic crunchy texture.
Clearspring Snack Organic Tamari Roasted Styrian Pumpkin Seeds make the perfect snack, or topping for salads, cereals and noodle dishes.
Independent analysis has shown that Clearspring's Organic Tamari Roasted Styrian Pumpkin Seeds contain 34% more dietary fibre, 29% more calcium, 27% more zinc and 28% more phosphorous than the more common, and somewhat cheaper, lighter coloured organic Chinese pumpkin seeds.
Pumpkin seeds have long been acknowledged as playing an important role in the maintenance of prostrate (1) and bladder health (2).
