Clean out the inside of the pumpkin using your hands and a metal scoop or spoon. Place the seeds and guts into a bowl. After you take most of the mushy stuff out, use the edge of the metal spoon to scrape the inside of pumpkin as best as you can. The dryer you get the inside of the pumpkin, the less you'll have left behind to rot.
Don't forget to save the pumpkin seeds for roasting later!
