PARTY POPCORN

This is a very speedy, almost comedically so, party-eat that is also, obligingly, rather thrifty to make. It's really quite zingy and packed with flavor and might alarm any passing child expecting more regular sugary fare. I find that it's hugely popular, which is why I make a substantial batch of it.

Time 10m

Yield 12 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons wok oil
1 cup (un-popped) popcorn maize
1/2 stick butter
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons ground paprika
4 teaspoons table salt
4 teaspoons sugar

Steps:

  • Put the wok oil into the biggest pan you have with a lid over high heat, add the popcorn and quickly put on the lid. Let the popcorn pop, shaking the pan every now and then to keep the kernels moving. You will hear it but don't be tempted to look, unless you want to get shot at, and once it has stopped popping - a couple of minutes or so - take it off the heat.
  • Melt the butter with the spices in another pan and then pour it over the popcorn and put everything into a large paper carrier bag/shopper. Shake, shake and shake the bag again to mix the popcorn and get it thoroughly coated in the spicy butter.
  • Arrange in several party bowls.

Tips for a Perfect Popcorn Treat:

  • Choose the Right Corn: Opt for gourmet popcorn kernels like butterfly or mushroom varieties for a fluffy and flavorful experience.
  • Use the Right Oil: High smoke point oils like coconut or grapeseed oil are ideal for popcorn, preventing burning and adding a neutral flavor.
  • Measure Accurately: Follow the recipe's measurements precisely for the perfect popcorn-to-oil ratio.
  • Shake the Pot: Continuously shake the pot or pan during popping to ensure even cooking and prevent burning.
  • Don't Crowd the Pot: Avoid overcrowding the pot with kernels, as this can result in uneven popping and soggy popcorn.
  • Season Immediately: Immediately after popping, toss the popcorn with your desired seasonings while it's still warm to ensure even distribution.
  • Store Properly: Keep leftover popcorn in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days to maintain its freshness and crunch.

Conclusion:

With these delightful recipes and expert tips, you can transform ordinary popcorn into an extraordinary treat, perfect for movie nights, parties, or everyday snacking. Experiment with different flavor combinations, toppings, and techniques to create your own unique popcorn masterpieces. Remember, the key to popcorn perfection lies in careful attention to detail, from choosing the right ingredients to executing the popping process with precision. So, grab your popcorn kernels, fire up the stove, and let your taste buds embark on a flavor-filled adventure!
