POPCORN SEASONING MIXES



Popcorn Seasoning Mixes image

When our grandkids sleep over, we usually watch a movie; they like seasoned popcorn but we pefer the plain old buttered stuff! Thanx to Martha Stewart, we now spend a little quality time in the kitchen as each child "cooks up" a mix before "show time"! All of the variations can be doubled or tripled, depending on the size of the container you plan to use. The Italian mixture should be kept in the refrigerator, as it contains fresh cheese.

Yield 1

¼ cup unpopped popcorn
brown paper bag
½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
½ teaspoon curry powder, or more to taste

Tips:

  • Choose the right popcorn. For the best results, use a good quality popcorn that is specifically designed for popping. Avoid using old or stale popcorn, as it will not pop as well and may result in a chewy texture.
  • Use fresh spices. Curry powder can lose its flavor over time, so it is important to use fresh spices for the best results. If you don't have curry powder on hand, you can make your own by combining ground cumin, coriander, turmeric, and cayenne pepper.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot. When popping the popcorn, be sure not to overcrowd the pot. This will prevent the popcorn from popping evenly and may result in some kernels remaining unpopped.
  • Season the popcorn immediately. Once the popcorn is popped, season it immediately with the curry powder and salt. This will help the spices to adhere to the popcorn and ensure that every bite is flavorful.
  • Store the popcorn properly. Store the curried popcorn in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, freeze the popcorn in an airtight container for up to 2 months.

Conclusion:

Curried popcorn is a delicious and easy-to-make snack that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a tasty treat that is sure to please everyone. So next time you are looking for a fun and flavorful snack, give this curried popcorn recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
