Categories     Cheese     Cocktail Party     Super Bowl     Thanksgiving     Vegetarian     Quick & Easy     Parmesan     Poker/Game Night     Party     Gourmet

Yield Makes about 8 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
About 8 cups hot plain popcorn
1 oz finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano (1/3 cup)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Drizzle oil over hot popcorn in a large bowl and toss to coat, then toss with cheese, pepper, and salt.

Tips:

  • Use fresh kernels: Fresh popcorn kernels will pop better and result in a more flavorful snack.
  • Choose the right oil: Some oils, like coconut oil and avocado oil, can burn at high temperatures. Stick to oils with a high smoke point, like grapeseed oil or canola oil.
  • Measure your ingredients: Using the correct measurements will help you achieve the perfect popcorn.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: If you overcrowd the pot, the kernels won't have enough room to pop properly.
  • Shake the pot regularly: This will help ensure that all of the kernels pop evenly.
  • Don't overcook the popcorn: Once the popping slows down to a few seconds between pops, remove the pot from the heat. Overcooked popcorn will be tough and chewy.
  • Season the popcorn to taste: You can add salt, pepper, butter, or other seasonings to taste.

Conclusion:

Making salt and pepper popcorn is a quick and easy snack that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and satisfying treat.
