The husband is the popcorn connoisseur. He prefers a little olive oil on the StirCrazy, and seasoned with truffle oil & truffle salt. Every so often I take a block of Parm and a Microplane to it too.
Semi-related - Rancho Gordo’s popcorn is excellent (and really well priced for the quality vs. grocery store popcorn), we buy about six bags at a time, which lasts maybe a couple of months in our house!
Yes it is. Definitely makes the popcorn pop fluffier/better than just a pot. Also butter flavored coconut oil (used by movie theaters) and ghee. And flavocol for the salt.
I wouldn’t suggest it too often, but you should try cooking in bacon grease. Make some good bacon in the am, reserve the grease and a few slices of bacon.
Cook the popcorn in the bacon grease, add some fresh bacon bits, Parmesan cheese and enjoy with champagne. Maybe some cracked pepper.
Thanks, for some reason, guess not trying hard, was having a hard time coming up with one with metal gears.
I could eat popcorn 24/7. Our favorite pub now closed except for carry out of course is all you can eat popcorn all of the time. I don’t think the little commercial machine paks include ghee or flavocol but miss it just the same
