/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Popped in safflower oil and then tossed with some melted butter, super-fine salt, and a little cracked black pepper (or cayenne if I'm feeling like more heat). I shun it in all other recipes, but that shitty crumbled parm dust is a decent addition too.

I spray butter flavored cooking spray on it, then sprinkle aspartame, salt, and vanilla coffee creamer on it.
It tastes like candy.

act II

I use an airpopper and zero calorie seasoning

>>14721713
This or kettle style (caramelized sugar and sea salt)

>>14721668
A small amount of butter and a chicken flavor packet from a ramen noodle package. Mix those both in and shake vigorously, that stuff tastes great, it's downright addictive.

>>14721721
Those things always have a truly nasty smell, like the stench of dead rotting animals and will stink up a place for days.

>>14722240
that doesn't sound very healthy

Cook in ghee instead of butter or oil, use mortar and pestle to grind salt ultrafine so that it sticks to and coats the corn more evenly.

>>14721668
popped in a handcrank stovetop popper with bacon fat and a can of minced clams then sprinkled with salt and pepper

>>14721668
Lemme give y'all niggers the cheat code

i shake it together with this and some cheap powdered parm

We've been having popcorn weekly for movie nights, we never used to eat popcorn. I buy Kettle corn and mention how much more I like it than movie style buttery popcorn.
Then spouse passive aggressively buys 44 bags of popcorn from fucking Costco.
motherfucker.

>>14721668
What's that orange salt you put on it in movie theaters? Whatever that is, but not a ton, light on the butter too.

I love oven popped with a little olive oil and a pinch of salt. Wife (and come to think of it, every woman I've ever met) douse the bowl in butter, I'll never get the appeal. Who can enjoy a movie with greasy ass fingiers

I usually cook mine in refined coconut oil then toss them in some homemade chilli crisp!

Just get the damn mocrowave popper its a silicone dish with a lid and collapses, incels. No woman wants your gourmet shit

>>14721737
Yum

Jolly Time Popcorn in the microwave.
Melt about a cup of butter in the microwave and thoroughly cover popcorn then salt with popcorn salt

nuke the cheapest stuff i can find and then add franks red hot and shake until every kernel has some sog to it

webm of the woman at a baseball game drinking butter from a cup of popcorn?

>>14721668
loads of butter and salt

>>14722635
What is the appeal of kettlecorn? It always tastes a bit sweet and strange to me

either air popped with nothing, or if i'm being a sadcunt salt and butta

also, the only way to eat popcorn is with choppastik. they're literally made for it, no food is better suited to choppastick, easy to grab one, three, or a handful in a single pinch

>>14722627
Absolutely fucking disgusting

Popped in clarified butter, salted with super fine salt ran through a spice grinder.

>>14725302
hey anon you think once i use up all the pepper in this pre-loaded store bought dealie i could load it up with salt?

>>14725205
From an Asian household, I agree that chopsticks can be used to eat almost anything

>>14725402
plus no pesky cheetos fingers

>>14725206
Cringe
>>14722627
Best

>>14722152
This, but pop corn gets stuck in my guns so bad. Orbit is the only thing that can extract the kernels from my gums, and only after 2 or 3 pieces.

Chilli powder + chicken salt.

>>14725402
Piss off, bugman.

I have tried to refill these before. I broke it trying to get it off. I powder salt with a cheap electric blade grinder. Really fine salt sticks to popcorn better. You can buy it, too. But I don't because it's easy to powder salt.

>>14722384
Given a large bowl of popcorn that'll like be shared and/or eaten over a long period of time it's really not bad at all. It's just one pat of butter and a ramen noodle chicken flavor packet. Small amounts add a lot of flavor to otherwise mostly tasteless popcorn.

>>14722627
Casual racism is still racism asshole.

>>14725863
What's your point?

>>14725863
Seems to me that you're the asshole for not accepting the fact that people have choices and you're the one that throws -ism -ists and -phobes for everyone that doesnt share your opinions. Get over yourself.

>>14725835
hmm i might just try to crush it up instead, i don't want to buy anything because i really don't have any second or third use for it atm.

can always try a really salty water solution and sprinkle it on i guess

>>14725895
That's a little tiny one that's for crushing up pills and stuff like that. Get a big ass Thai one, I got mine from a Thai store in chinatown manhattan, that mortar is heavy so is the pestle the way to use it to not do the crushing directly but let the pestle do the work. You kind of give the pestle a guided drop on top of whatever's in the mortar, keep repeating until it's all some nice friendly mush in the mortar.
Mine is like pic related and recommened to me by a crusty old Thai dude. If you buy shit from a celebrity fag like jamie oliver you'll get ripped off.

>>14725918
i won't be buying either atm but yeah, if i was going to get one i'd get a proper one like your pic. these days i'm a wagecuck so i just have flavoured nukrowave popcorn anyway\

fun fact: for anyone who wants to microwave popcorn but hates the oily grocery store shit, you put plain kernels in a paper bag, get most of the air out, fold the end over a few times to mostly seal it up, and it pops PERFECTLY without oil or anything in the microwave, takes about 3 minutes. it takes some practice because too much popcorn in the paper bag and it'll burst and be a pain in the ass.

>>14725895
A secondary use would be if you have a some invasion, you can bash some stinking invader over the head with a nice heavy pestle. A tertiary use would be as a kinky sex toy.

I think I paid like $20 for it.

>>14725935
I've read that, I think it has to be a brown paper bag for whatever reason.

>>14725918
this rough one is useful for smashing those twigs used like herbs like the lemongrass, dried fish and onions going into like a green papaya salad.

>>14725947
yeah that lemongrass can be a bitch, I've found that a small garden shears deal with lemon grass and big ol ginger knots pretty easily. I keep a garden shears just for kitchen use, seperate from everything else.

Pop it on the stovetop. Sprinkle of salt and paprika.

>Those things always have a truly nasty smell, like the stench of dead rotting animals and will stink up a place for days.
no it smells like popcorn retard

Nuked in a dirty microwave

Her?
>>14725198
I've never liked the overly salty fake butter flavor of "regular popcorn" I guess I have more of a sweet tooth. it feels lighter and doesn't make my lips chapped.

Carolina reaper powder, garlic powder, salt and butter.

Best: on the stove with only corn oil, and then salt after. Yes, fine salt is better.
Doesn't it make sense to use corn oil if popping corn? Of course it does.

>>14725863
Okay nigger nobody cares
What >>14725881 said

>>14721668
Air popped, plain, no oil/spices or anything. Saves on calories and is still nutritionally dense from the fiber provided without any shit added.

>>14722152
can't stand the smell,kirkland every time.

>>14730153
Disgusting

>>14730153
salt has no calories, why wouldnt you just add a pinch or something?

>>14721668
Sugar in that special hardened way. I add a little sugar to the popcorn when it starts to pop after frying it in oil.

>>14730843
Salt doesn’t stick to air fried popcorn with not fat added. Trust me, I am speaking from first hand experience. And popcorn like that is absolutely disgusting.

With tortillas and ketchup

>>14721668
Popcorn is cancer.
Gets stuck between teeth
Gets stuck at back of tongue
That chemical smell when someone in your house or work cooks that instant shit.
Fuck that

Butter and salt
