From a Pot: Homemade Popcorn
Homemade Popcorn
Simple homemade popcorn, that's like in the cinema.
With butter, chocolate, pear, maple syrup, sugar ... My favorite snack - popcorn. The whole point of going to the cinema is popcorn, at least for me. Ok, I like movies too, but you know what I mean. :) Do you prefer salty or sweet popcorn? I prefer salty, it’s superior. The secret of making the same popcorn at home as you would get in the cinema is a special salt that is slightly seasoned with butter and sticks to the popcorn. Adding it to the oil as you pop improves the coverage of popcorn. The salt is called Flavacol. I am attaching a link to this salt below, and I really recommend buying it because it really makes a huge difference to the taste. I know it’s not exactly cheap, but one packet will last you for years. I even distributed it among my friends.
