Kettle Corn Popcorn Recipes

Steps:

• Place the oil in the bottom of a large pot.
• Add in the unpopped popcorn kernels with the sugar and salt.
• Over a medium heat begin to pop the popcorn, constantly shaking the pot to ensure that the popcorn kernels and oil do not burn.
• Once the popping has slowed down remove the pot from the heat.

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Once hot, stir in the sugar and popcorn. Cover, and shake the pot constantly to keep the sugar from burning. Once the popping has slowed to once every 2 to 3 seconds, remove the pot from the heat and continue to shake for a few minutes until the popping has stopped. Pour into a large bowl, and allow to cool, stirring occasionally to break up large clumps.

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Divide the sugar evenly between 6 small bowls, 2 tablespoons per bowl.
• Dye each bowl of sugar a different color by adding 1-2 drops of red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple food coloring. Stir each bowl with a clean fork until the sugars are sandy in texture. Note: We recommend gel food coloring, as the colors are more stable. Only use 1-2 drops; a little goes a long way.
• Add 1 teaspoon of coconut oil and 2 popcorn kernels to a medium nonstick saucepan with a lid. Cover and place over medium-high heat. Once the kernels pop, reduce the heat to medium and add 2 tablespoons of popcorn kernels and 1 bowl of colored sugar. Immediately cover the pan and shake to combine. Cook, shaking the pan constantly to ensure that the sugar doesn't burn, while the popcorn pops. Once the pops are more than 3 seconds apart, remove the pot from heat. Carefully remove the lid away from your body and pour the popcorn onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Evenly sprinkle ¼ teaspoon salt over the hot kettle corn. Let the popcorn cool completely, transfer to a bowl. Repeat with the remaining colors, replacing the parchment paper as needed.
• Combine all of the popcorn in a large bowl. Toss to distribute the colors evenly. Serve immediately, or store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven over medium heat, cook the popcorn, sugar and oil until oil begins to sizzle. Cover and shake for 3-4 minutes or until popcorn stops popping., Transfer to a large bowl. Drizzle with butter. Add salt; toss to coat.

Steps:

• Put popcorn and oil in a stove top popcorn popper over medium heat. When oil is hot and corn begins to sizzle, add sugar. Stir or shake constantly to avoid burning the sugar. When popping slows to once every 2 or 3 seconds remove from heat and pour popcorn into a large bowl.
• Mix vanilla extract into the melted butter and drizzle over popped popcorn. Toss popcorn well to distribute the butter evenly. Allow popcorn to cool for 3 to 4 minutes to crisp up.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. (If using a charcoal grill, make sure that the coals are several inches below the grate.)
• Combine the popcorn, vegetable oil, sugar and fine salt in an 8- to 9-inch round disposable aluminum cake pan and stir to coat. Tear off two 18-inch-long sheets of heavy-duty foil. Crimp the end of one sheet around the rim of the pan on one side, then crimp the other end of the foil on the opposite side of the pan, leaving 5 to 6 inches of room above the kernels so they have room to pop. Rotate the pan 90 degrees and repeat to crimp the second sheet of foil onto the pan, perpendicular to the first, making sure that the entire edge is well sealed. The foil should create a dome over the top of the pan.
• Once the grill registers 350˚ F to 375˚ F, put the pan on the grill. Wait until you hear sizzling, about 2 minutes, then, using tongs, start shaking the pan frequently until the popcorn starts to pop, 3 to 5 minutes (it's important to keep the pan moving so the sugar doesn't burn before the kernels start to pop). Continue to cook, shaking almost constantly, until the popping subsides, 3 to 5 more minutes.
• Remove the pan from the heat and let stand a few minutes. Carefully cut an X into the top of the foil and peel back the layers to expose the popcorn. Sprinkle with smoked sea salt. The popcorn will feel slightly sticky at first but will become crisp as it cools.

Steps:

• Place the popcorn and peanuts in an insulated stainless steel mixing bowl.
• Combine the sugar, molasses and vanilla in a 1-quart saucepan fitted with a candy thermometer. Bring to a boil and continue to boil until the mixture reaches 250 degrees F, about 10 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and stir in the butter until incorporated. Add the baking soda and stir until well incorporated.
• Pour the hot, finished mixture over the popcorn and peanuts and stir to incorporate.
• Hand form twenty 3-ounce portions of the kettle corn onto the ends of 20 bamboo skewers and let cool.
• Pour one half of the liquid nitrogen, if using, into the insulated, stainless steel bowl.
• Holding the end of one of the skewers, dip the popcorn into the liquid nitrogen and hold it there for 5 seconds before lifting it out. Repeat with the remaining skewers.

Steps:

• Spray the bottom and sides of the inside of a brown paper lunch bag with the cooking spray. Add the popping corn to the bag, fold over the top of the bag once or twice to seal, and place it in the microwave. Microwave on high for 3 & 1/2 minutes or until popping significantly slows.
• When the popcorn is done popping, quickly add the Truvia and salt, reseal the bag, shake, and serve.

Steps:

• Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. In a small bowl, mix together the salt and cinnamon. Set aside.
• Heat a large Dutch oven, covered, over medium-high heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the coconut oil and heat 30 seconds. To check if the Dutch oven is hot enough, add one or two popcorn kernels to the pan and cover with the lid. Cook until you hear the kernels pop, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add the remaining kernels and the sugar, stir to combine and cover. Shake the pan vigorously to coat the kernels in the sugar and oil. Cook, shaking the pan often, until the popping has slowed to about 2 pops per second, about 2 minutes.
• Remove the Dutch oven from the heat and carefully uncover. Pour the mixture onto the prepared pan and sprinkle with the cinnamon salt. Be careful: the popcorn is extremely hot at this point. Allow the kettle corn to cool for 5 minutes before enjoying.

Steps:

• Heat Oil over medium heat in a large skillet with a tight fitting lid.
• Add Popcorn and continue to heat until first kernel pops.
• quickly stir in sugar until it is dissolved.
• Cover and continue to shake skillet, popcorn may burn, be careful.
• After the popcorn is popped, pour in a bowl and lightly salt.
