  • Popcorn is one of the greatest foods on planet Earth and I think you all should know how to pop to perfection right at home. My spice blend has been honed and perfected over many, many years and is an umami party thanks to several magical ingredients (yes, nutritional yeast is one of them). I burned my finger making this the other night and I'd do it again just to be alone with a giant bowl all to myself.
    Here are the ingredients-taste and season as you go!
    *Magical 7-Spice Umami Popcorn*
    Popcorn kernels
    Vegetable oil, for popping
    Extra virgin olive oil, for seasoning
    Kosher salt
    Freshly ground black pepper
    Nutritional yeast
    Aleppo pepper
    MSG
    Granulated garlic
    ~~I like the butterfly popcorn variety from Kalustyan's: foodsofnations.com/products/w...

      I sneak my already popped nutritional yeast popcorn in the movies. I don't understand how/why people started thinking popping popcorn was such a difficult thing to do. It literally takes minutes and is so much better than microwaved popcorn.

    Dear Carla, I have enjoyed your recipes for years and for the first time I think I can tell you something worth trying. One night, we tried rosemary popcorn, which appeared to fail completely as it was added to the pot during popping and (in hindsight, obviously) all it did was stick to the pan. Yet the result was staggeringly delicious. It had been perfumed by the aromatic! Now, I use whole sprigs of rosemary or fresh bay leaves regularly. Once I even did a chicken soup flavored popcorn: Nothing during popping, but after popping return it to the pot *on a steamer basket* with celery seeds, a sprig of thyme, and a couple of bay leaves (go HARD on the bay leaf in any way and it's crazy delicious). Not much heat, maybe 5 minutes? Use your nose. Then toss with salt, onion powder (much less than you used garlic powder), parm (or the substitution I assumed you'd prefer), and some very well patted dry fresh flat parsley. Does it taste like chicken noodle soup? Freakishly so. Is that in any way desirable for popcorn? Somehow also yes, and again freakishly so.

    When I was a little girl we would go buy vegetables from a local farmer. He would grow his own popcorn and have a popcorn dinner every Friday night. Well throughout the years I have had my share of popcorn and tomato juice dinners a nod to the old farmer. But I really want to start applying it big-time this winner on Saturday night. I’m with Jesus but still a Jew. So at the end of Shabbat I would love to have my popcorn dinner! So I am glad to have this recipe.

    Edit: I just made an adaptation of this recipe...parm cheese instead of yeast powder...didn't have any at home...I'm sitting here with one cheese-covered claw, my popcorn, and a raspberry-lime seltzer. Life is good.

    Here’s a tip - if you don’t want to break out the blender, use a coffee grinder (not the burr kind - the one with a removable cup is preferred). I agree with your friend - the superfine particles are more likely to stick to the popcorn.

Even my baby-mouthed family loved it. I even bought nutritional yeast for the first time ever. Didn't have Aleppo pepper but Mrs. Dash's Southwestern Chipotle mix worked fine. If anything I could go heavier on the oil and spices.
