Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unpopped popcorn kernels
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
1. Prepare the Popcorn: In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the popcorn kernels and cover with a lid. Once the corn starts popping, gently shake the pot occasionally to ensure even popping and to prevent burning. When the popping slows to a few seconds between pops, remove from heat and set aside.
2. Make the Honey Mixture: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the honey and stir until well combined. Remove from heat.
3. Combine and Season: Place the warm popcorn in a large bowl. Drizzle the honey mixture over the popcorn, then sprinkle with sea salt. Gently toss to ensure even coating.
4. Serve and Enjoy: Transfer to a serving bowl and enjoy immediately for the best texture and flavor experience.
Helpful Tips
- Variation: Add a pinch of cinnamon or a splash of vanilla extract to the honey mixture for a unique twist.
- Ease: Use pre-popped plain popcorn if you’re short on time. Simply heat the honey and butter mixture and proceed with the recipe.
Storage Instructions
Store any leftover popcorn in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1-2 days. Note that the popcorn may lose some of its crunch over time.
Pairings
This Honey and Sea Salt Popcorn pairs wonderfully with hot cocoa or fresh fruit juice. For a savory pairing, serve it with a cheese platter or a bowl of mixed nuts.
