A big bowl of seasoned popcorn goes a long way -- and is an excellent healthy snack. There's a secret to getting every last kernel to pop (let stand 30 seconds), but this is among the easiest of snacks to make. Try it in one or more of our variety of flavors: sea salt-pepper; chili-lime; sesame-pepper; Pecorino-rosemary; smoked paprika; and spicy-sweet. This recipe originally appeared inMartha Stewart's Appetizers (Clarkson Potter).
