Equipment

  • Small Pot
  • Digital Food Scale
  • Large Stock Pot

Ingredients
 
 

  • 57 grams olive oil
  • 142 grams popcorn kernels
  • 57 grams salted butter
  • 1 tablespoon dried rosemary
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons fine sea salt

Instructions
 

  • In a large pot add olive oil and 3 corn kernels, cover with a lid and put over medium/high heat.
  • Once all kernels have popped, remove popped kernels and add all remaining corn kernels and cover with a lid.
  • Intermittently, gently swirl around the kernels in the pot. Once kernels start to pop, shake the pot frequently so popped kernels rise to the top. When the popcorn pops slow to 1 second between pops, remove pot from heat and remove lid.
  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, add the butter and rosemary. Melt until completely melted, remove from heat.
  • Pour over the popped corn and add the sea salt. Add the lid and shake to coat completely.
  • Transfer into a large bowl and add a generous amount of salt to taste!

Notes

Tips
  • You can use coconut oil or avocado oil as well. But, I like the flavor of olive oil best with this recipe as coconut oil is a little sweeter. But, avocado oil would be very similar.
  • Don't leave popcorn popping on the stove, always be sure you are standing over it to prevent burning.
  • Add salt to taste, this is best to do when it's hot so it sticks to the popcorn!
  • Make this vegan by using your favorite vegan butter or just using avocado oil with the rosemary in place of butter.
