Ingredients
Dill Seasoning
- 2 teaspoons dried dill weed or 1 1/2 TBSP fresh dill
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt more to taste
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
Popcorn
- 3 Tablespoon oil of choice refined coconut oil is preferred
- 1/2 /2 cup popcorn kernels
- 3 Tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 Tablespoon dill pickle juice
Instructions
- In a small bowl, stir together the seasoning ingredients.
- In a large heavy-bottomed large stockpot or dutch oven, add the oil and three popcorn kernels, heating over high heat. Cover the pan. These are the "test kernels" and once they pop, it signals that the oil is officially hot enough to pop all the kernels at the same time.
- Meanwhile, measure out the remaining 1/2 cup of popcorn kernels and begin preparing your butter by melting it either in a microwave-safe bowl or on the stovetop. If microwaving, run it in 20-second intervals, checking often to keep it from exploding. Add the pickle juice and set aside.
- Once the three test kernels have popped, immediately add the 1/2 cup of popcorn kernels to the pan. Cover and remove from heat, gently swirling from side to side for 20 seconds. Return the pan to the heat, and the popcorn kernels will almost immediately begin popping.
- Once the kernels are about halfway done popping, slightly crack the lid to allow excess steam to escape. Do this when the stockpot is approximately halfway full with popcorn, or about 30 seconds to 1 minute after they've popped – this does not have to be exact.
- If needed, you can gently shake the pan side to side to allow any remaining kernels to make it to the bottom of the pan to pop. Once the popping has slowed or just stopped, immediately pour the popcorn into your serving bowl. It's helpful if you have a large bowl with a lid. Alternatively, use a large brown paper bag to toss.
- Toss the freshly made popcorn with the melted butter until evenly coated, ensuring it's tossed well. Then, sprinkle the seasoning evenly over buttered popcorn and toss or shake to coat until completely covered. Add salt and adjust to taste. Enjoy immediately!
Equipments used:
Notes
- Additional spice options: red pepper flakes, onion powder, ground mustard, and ground coriander.
- Microwave Popcorn: If using, adjust how much seasoning you add because it will yield less popcorn, and is often already salted. Be sure you toss when the popcorn is still warm so the seasoning sticks, too.
- If omitting the pickle juice, increase butter to 4 tablespoons.
