I have a huge mammoth sunflower that is dried up and ready to be used for eating! I don't want to unshell them, so is there a way I can just cook them with the shell?
Yes you can. If you want to have them flavored (salt, cajun, etc) , put a large amount of flavoring in a bowl with some water. (about a 4 to 1 ratio.) mix the seeds in and then spread them out on a cookie sheet. Roast them for about 45 mins on 400. About 15 mins before cooking is done, stir them around on the sheet. Let them finish cooking and enjoy!

Anecdotal Evidence: `Yes,This Is a Most Useful Universe'
by Patrick Kurp
Is a true bug, belonging like cicadas and aphids to the order Hemiptera. Their outer wings are black with orange triangles and other geometric shapes. They are shiny and elegant creatures, and might have been designed by a jeweler. The bugs, a male and two females, live in a plastic bag furnished with a stick, cotton balls (for egg-laying) and shelled sunflower seeds (food, in lieu of milkweed). Some of the girls’ classmates have already found the yellow stain of eggs on the cotton. Their assignment was to describe what they saw in the habitat, emphasizing what had changed since last week. The girls were lost. One is more verbal than the other, and I asked, “What do you see? What’s going on in there?” “You mean data?” Well, yes. Not my first choice of words, but adequate. “Well, they’re still alive,” she said. “Excellent,” I replied, having overlooked that obvious but critical fact. Then the flood began, at first only the verbal girl, soon joined by her shy partner. No detail was too trivial. They talked and wrote in their notebooks a catalog of impressions, even counting the bits of excrement. Except for encouragement and praise, I said little, and soon each had filled two pages with detailed notes. We – poets,biologists; students, teachers -- are adapted to the world. Together, we have co-evolved. “I’m a rhyme,” indeed (Nabokov wrote the story in English. Does the rhyme co-exist in Russian?). We rhyme with the world. No writer can honestly complain about lack of material. Look around. Make some notes and caress the details.
