Every time you buy sunflowers to cook, remove the seeds and don't throw them away. With them, you can prepare a snack, to accompany appetizers. Wash the seeds well and dry with paper towels. Season with salt to taste, mixing well with your hands, so that the salt distributes evenly. Place in a baking dish and spread out. Put it in a hot oven (200°F), for about 40 minutes, and toast, stirring occasionally, until the seeds become toasted and crunchy. Try it, to check if it's just right. Then, let it cool down and store it in an airtight container.
