KETTLE CORN POPCORN

KETTLE CORN POPCORN 1/4 cup extra light olive oil or vegetable oil 1/4 cup sugar 1/2 cup good quality popcorn kernels fine salt Heat oil with 3 test kernels in large, deep, heavy pot with tight fitting lid. Once all 3 kernels pop, your oil is hot enough. Add sugar and popcorn kernels, stir a bit, and cover. Shake pot vigorously every few seconds (yes, every few seconds). I alternate between setting pot down to rest a few seconds and shaking it a few seconds. This is a bit of an arm workout, but it must be done so sugar/popcorn won’t burn. Once popping has slowed, remove pot from heat and keep shaking until there’s no more popping. Sprinkle evenly with a pinch or two of salt, give it another good shake, and immediately pour into large bowl. Break up clumps as needed, and let cool just enough to dig in!
