Instructions
00:00 Introduction
00:34 Place a wire cooling rack over a baking sheet and set aside.
00:59 Pour oil into the bottom of a medium-sized saucepan and set on the stovetop over medium heat. Add 3-5 popcorn kernels and cover the pot with a lid. Wait and listen for the kernels to begin to pop.
02:08 Once you hear a kernel pop, add remaining popcorn kernels in an even layer, add granulated sugar and sea salt and stir, and immediately re-cover with lid.
02:49 Every 10 seconds, lift pot from stovetop (use oven mitts!), hold the lid on very, very tightly, and shake the pot back and forth thoroughly and repeatedly to shake the kernels and sugar, then return to heat. You should begin to hear the popcorn kernels popping rapidly. Continue to remove from heat every 5-10 seconds and shake so that the popcorn cooks evenly.
03:57 Once the popping slows (if you’re hearing 2 seconds or so between pops), immediately remove the saucepan from the heat. Carefully remove lid (keep the pot turned away from your face in case kernels continue to pop) and pour evenly over prepared baking sheet.
04:42 Allow to cool several seconds and sprinkle with additional sea salt to taste (if the popcorn tastes bland, you just need more salt!).
05:13 Use your hands to gently shake the popcorn around on the cooling rack, this will allow most of the stray kernels to fall through. Pour popcorn into a serving dish and serve immediately while still warm.
Notes
How to clean your saucepan
Sugar burnt to your saucepan that won’t come off when you scrub? Here’s an easy way to clean: Fill the pot ⅔ full with water and return to the stovetop. Bring it to a boil, occasionally scraping the sides of the pot with a spatula as needed to loosen any residue that’s burnt on. Once it’s clean, pour out the water, let the pot cool a bit, then wash as normal.
Storing
Kettle corn is best served fresh and still warm. However, you may store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. If you’ve found your popcorn has become sticky, soft, or stale (usually a result of humidity), simply preheat your oven to 200F (95C) and spread the popcorn over a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Transfer the baking sheet to the center rack of your oven and heat until warmed (about 10 minutes or so), it should become crisp (and no longer sticky!) once again as it cools.

when i was a kid every time we popped popcorn...my daddy would say...'okay girls, i'll hold the pot and y'all shake the stove.' my great grand kids say it now! in fact, i still have the popcorn pot that has been passed down!...lol

Congrats on a confident explanation on making popcorn, great for beginners and above with tips for everyone. Thank you 😊
I searched all over for a good video about how to make kettle corn (without the special popcorn pan), and your video here is the best by far!!! I am so glad I found this, it was so clear and easy to understand the process exactly, and your advice was so helpful!
I'd never even tried stovetop popcorn at all, but I tried this recipe from you following your tips, and it was great!! I ended up doubling the recipe and using a little less sugar, and it was awesome! My family ate it right up (even my self-proclaimed kettle corn hater!) and I look forward to making it again.
Thank you so much, Kathryn! I'm so happy my recipe worked out for you and everyone enjoyed the final product. Thanks for commenting! 🙂
Thank you! Just had bariatric surgery 3 months ago, and trying to find healthy snacks that aren't expensive isn't easy. This was awesome! Easy to follow, love the Kettle corn, appreciate the tips!

Yum! 😋 I can taste and smell that delicious popcorn from here! Definitely going to make this.
Please do! 😊
Omg Sam, I literally Googled how to make kettlecorn at home YESTERDAY. How are you in my head?? Will definitely be making this 😍
Hope you like it! 😊
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Great tip about the cooling rack! I usually wind up with a giant popcorn ball (bowl-shaped), so thank you!
You're welcome! Enjoy! :)
I don’t have to buy it anymore!!! Loveee it!! Thank you so much 🫶🏻🫶🏻🥺
You're welcome! Enjoy! :)
My go to popcorn recipe thank you!! I’ve saved so much money making it from scratch. I just use raw sugar instead or refined
I’m so glad you’ve enjoyed it so much! 😊
Can we use Honey?
Or maybe Stevia?
Omg 😱 I can't believe this 50's baby never had S&S popcorn until now. Just ate a whole big bag of boom chicka and decided there had to be a cheaper way. Googled it and 45 min later I know everything there is about popcorn🤯 Phone 📱 decided for me which recipe to watch 1st and here I am 🤷♀️ with you 😊 no need to look further. The only thing we ALWAYS did differently was we never picked up our pan. The sound of shaking it back and forth on our raised black burner makes me think happy thoughts of my grandma. ❤ Our unpopped seeds simply settled in the bottom of our popcorn bowl then out to the squirrels 🐿 thanks for reminding me never to eat microwaved again👍😵💫 YOU CHEERED ME UP.🥰❣️❣️❣️
So glad you enjoyed the video, Cyndie! 🥰
Thank you Sugar now I know how make the proper popcorn thank you
Hope you enjoy!
My tip for seasoning popcorn is to put that salt in a blender/nutribullet/processor/or grind it down till it becomes almost powder. If the salt crystal is big some stick on the popcorn but most fall to the bottom of the bowl. you can also add parmesan cheese in the blender or hidden valley ranch seasoning, garlic powder, anything. Extra seasning can be stored for future popcorn snacks
Thanks for the tip! I'll have to try it some time. :)
I LOVE making popcorn. Thank you so much for this video. It’s super easy to follow (as are all your videos) and I can’t wait to try making kettle corn 🥳🥳
Just a quick tip & question: I’ve found that a clear lid with a tiny hole works best for me over a stainless steel cover when making popcorn. I’m able to see when the first couple kernels have popped and what’s going on in the pot 😆 and the hole allows for ventilation. What are your thoughts on that?
That sounds like a great idea! I just don’t have one. 😊
I live in nebraska and we are home to corn, and we have a lot of popcorn types and kettle corn is my favorite!!!
It's such a good snack!
Whirley Pop corn makers are excellent, and do not require the shaking. You can use any popcorn seeds you wish. Using oil of choice, heat oil and test 2-3 kernels Throughout this and remaining popping process. continually crank the wooden handle. Not at all strenuous, popping time is quick and even, and very few kernels remain.
That sounds great! The video was intended to make it so you didn't have to use any special equipment, but maybe I need to get myself a popcorn maker to make it easier. :)
The best video so far for me
Glad you enjoyed it! 🥰
Hi Sam omg love love kettle popcorn 🍿 it’s the best thanks for this awesome recipe know I can make it anytime I want fantastic take care
You are so welcome!
@@SugarSpunRun your channel is great 👍🏻 I have tried some of your recipes the mozzarella sticks the garlicky bread sticks and know the kettle popcorn going to make the bread sticks for thanksgiving absolutely delicious thanks for another great upload take care
Thank you so much! ❤️
@@SugarSpunRun your welcome
Wow
Hi there! My family absolutely loves kettle corn. Would this recipe work ok if a whorlie pop popcorn popper( hand cranked) was used?
I've never tried it that way, but I think it would work!
I love sweet salty popcorn. Great recipe.
I’ve even made cheese popcorn, easy and fun.
Thanks!
Hope you enjoy 😊
Totally love popcorn and making it in a pot...never attempted it with sugar.. yummy! You let it slip.. you are pregnant again?! I only watch on YT so I must have missed an announcement?! Congratulations! 😃💕👶
Yup another little boy coming soon. 😊
Delightful video.... personality makes the difference.... No more paying fair prices...lol thanks!!
You’re welcome! Enjoy! 😊
@@SugarSpunRun we enjoyed it so much.... tonight I'm fixin to triple the batch .... Should I triple the amount of oil?
Can the batch be doubled if you use a bigger pot?
As long as it all fits. :)
I don't understand, I tried making it, and the suger burned before the popcorn poped. I did everything, I shook the pot; I even waited until the popcorne started popping before adding the suger, but when I added the suger, it stoped it from popping and the suger burned before it started agine. Would you be able to help me?❤❤
"Put the lid back awn" Let me guess where you're from ? 😅 Great tip about using the cooling rack 👍
What does sugar do to your popcorn 🍿
It makes it sweet 🙂
50 seconds yay
All the shaking removes all the calories too! Great idea! Lol.
🤣 if only!
🤟🏻😎👍🏻
Even on “low” this burnt before half the kernels popped - even with shaking as per your instruction. 😢
same here :C I tried lowering the heat and it burnt, I tried cooking it less and it was the same. It's easier to make the popcorn and sugar syrup separately then mixing it together
💖👼🏻🌺
Hold upp! PREGNANT!!? I had to rewind the video to see if I heard that right I thought I was tripping lol I must have missed a crumbs blog on your website congratulations! Hope we get to see your gender reveal and/or your baby shower 🙂.
I actually did do a crumbs post a little bit ago. We are having another little boy. 😊
@@SugarSpunRun Aww congratulations on your new bundle of joy 🙂, thank you I'll go read that crumbs blog right now.
where's the 'sweet'?
The sugar added at 02:15 😊
@@SugarSpunRun Ahh! - thnx!! I'm concerned w/it burning... have you done it by adding confec. sugar after?
Thanks!! : )
To dangerous for the average person now. I can see them not holding the lid on tight and being burned by hot oil thrown out.
Was really hopeful this recipe would work but it didn’t
O no! What happened?!
