It is good, just probably a bit high in calories due to the use of pumpkin seeds as the main ingredient, but good. I like to add the juice of one or two fresh limes as well, instead of salt.

This earthy toasted pumpkin seed salsa, a specialty of the Yucatán, is rich, thick, and satisfying. Serve it with tortilla chips for dipping. This recipe first appeared in our August/September 2012 issue with Hugo Ortega's article Special Sauce.
