Kettle Korn

It’s popular fair/carnival food BUT did you know you can make it at home and it is E-A-S-Y!!!

Ok so depending on  the size of the batch you may need to play around with the actual amounts of the in gredients

 

which are:

loose popping corn

a few TBS of oil ( we use Veg.)

about 2 -3 teaspoons od regular white granulated sugar (remember sometimes it’s best to live by the old adage  Less is More)

and

Salt. ( we use sea salt)

 

Now the key is to when to add both the sugar and salt.

Sohere ya go

Place oil into a HOT nonstick pan (This must have a Lid for obvious catstrophic reasons 🙂

try to gauge the right amount of popcorn to the size of the pan.

When the oil starts to sizzle add popcorn (GENTLY) in just a few seconds the popcorn will begin to pop.  this is when you add the sugar.  Sprinkle it carefully over the kernels (you only want 4 or 5 kernels to have popped before adding the sugar)  Not begine shaking the pan holding on to the liduntil the pop corn is finished popping (basiclly until you hear only a few pops instead of many!  then remove from heat and shaeon salt. and shake gently with lid one. stir with a wooden spoon and let sitfor a minute or so.

ENJOY!

Cook’s not: Be extremely careful when adding the sugar, the sugar will cause the oil to snap and splatter! So use a hot mitt if possible!
