What do you put on your popcorn? Thanks to my neighbor...

I am now using a hot air popper (once again), drizzling with evoo and sprinkling salt. Quite fresh and tasty without the preservatives, etc.

I'm looking for some new T&T sprinkles for my popcorn. What do you use?

Avocado oil,good sea salts...

the avocado oil is good for you and adds a nice buttery taste some of the other oils can't add. Different sea salts add different flavors, have one fleur de sel with herbs de provence that is nice. Rosemary is nice. All sorts of peppers - black, mixed, white, cayenne, chili powder blends, of course grated cheeses like parmesan, romano or OH Pecorino! But I am on a blue cheese kick and saw Michael Chiarello putting very finely grated frozen blue cheese on a salad - sounds like one to try on popcorn! Just made a blue cheese melt to dip homemade chips in yesterday and OMG was is wonderful!

OH - forgot - after vacation this summer I fell in love with Old Bay/Phillip's crab seasoning and put some on popcorn and it was great - loved the celery flavor.

 
Balsamico dressing for popcorn...

I found this in a food magazine in my dentists waiting room and scribbled down the recipe (my dentist is a foodie too!)

Unfortunately the measurements are in metric - I am so bad with math I won't even try to convert these.


85 millilitres balsamico vinegar
90 grams butter (approximately 6 tablespoons)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
salt
200 grams popcorn (approximately 1/2 pound)

Pour balsamico vinegar in a sauce pan. Bring to boil and cook till reduced to syrupy, about 6 minutes.
Add oil and butter, and heat until butter has melted. Whisk lightly until blended (I guess stirring will work too.)

Pour over popped pop corn while stirring (I assume folding it in lightly with your hands will work better) then add salt to taste.


I haven't tasted this yet myself but it's on my "to try" list.

 
as much butter as it will absorb and sea salt. I know, but I don't eat it that often smileys/smile.gif
