Categories     Popcorn

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 Tbsp canola or vegetable oil
1/2 c popcorn kernels
3 Tbsp granulated sugar (i use more)
2 Tbsp ancho chili powder (i use more)
2 tsp kosher salt (i use sea salt instead)

Steps:

  • 1. Heat the oil in the bottom of a heavy 4 qt pan over medium heat until warm, about 1 minute. Add popcorn in a single layer; sprinkle with sugar. Cover pan.
  • 2. Let kernels cook, shaking occasionally to prevent burning. When popping slows to 3-5 seconds between pops, remove pan from burner and pour into bowl. Sprinkle the chili powder/salt mixture onto the popcorn, shaking popcorn to evenly distribute the salt/chili powder mixture. Serve immediately.
  • 3. I don't actually measure my ingredients for doing this. The measurements are an estimation only. I usually just mix up some salt and chili powder and keep it in a lidded bowl and "eyeball" the oil and sugar. The popcorn measurement is the only thing that is an exact amount because it makes the amount of popcorn I want when I do this.

Tips:

  • Use fresh popcorn kernels for the best flavor and texture.
  • Add the sugar and spices to the popcorn while it is still hot so that they will adhere better.
  • Be careful not to burn the sugar when making the caramel coating.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the caramel by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the caramel forms a hard ball, it is ready.
  • Pour the caramel coating over the popcorn in a thin stream, stirring constantly so that all of the popcorn is coated.
  • Spread the coated popcorn out on a baking sheet or piece of parchment paper to cool and harden.
  • Store the kettle corn in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Sweet and spicy kettle corn is a delicious and easy-to-make snack that is perfect for parties, movie nights, or anytime you need a sweet and salty treat. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make this classic carnival treat right in your own kitchen.
