Puffed corn can be found in the potato chip aisle of your grocery store. This is a great caramel corn without hulls or unpopped kernels. Warning: you need to make a double batch of this because it doesn't last long, at least not in my house. Very addicting. Love it!

Puff Corn can be found in the potato chip aisle of your grocery store. (The brand we have is Old Dutch, but I'm sure there are others.) Making caramel corn this way gives you great big "kernels" with no hulls or old maids. Quite addictive. Great at a party. Makes nice gifts too.

Tips:

  • Use fresh popcorn kernels. Stale kernels will not pop as well and will result in a less flavorful popcorn.
  • Do not overcrowd the pot. If you overcrowd the pot, the popcorn will not pop evenly and you will end up with unpopped kernels.
  • Shake the pot constantly. This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the popcorn from burning.
  • Remove the pot from the heat as soon as the popping slows down. If you leave the popcorn on the heat for too long, it will start to burn.
  • Season the popcorn to taste. You can add a variety of seasonings to your popcorn, such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, or chili powder.

Conclusion:

Making no-kernel caramel puff popcorn is a simple and easy process that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With just a few ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and healthy snack that is perfect for parties, movie nights, or any other occasion.
