Time 20m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (1 pound) package bacon, cut into 1/2-inch dice
ΒΌ cup vegetable oil
1 cup unpopped popcorn
1 pinch salt, or to taste

Steps:

  • Place bacon and vegetable oil in a large, deep pot with a tight-fitting lid over medium heat. Cook and stir bacon until crisp and brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Scatter the popcorn into the pan with the bacon and drippings and cover with the lid. When you hear kernels of popcorn begin to pop, shake the pan vigorously until popping slows to 1 or 2 pops per about 30 seconds.
  • Remove lid facing away from you to avoid steam and transfer bacon popcorn to a large serving bowl. Season to taste with salt if desired.

I Can't Believe Its Not Real Popcorn! image

I am allergic to corn and I have craved the taste of popcorn for the last 3 years. I ran across this recipe somewhere along the way and cannot believe I didn't think of this myself. There have to be others out there like me who would appreciate this! This recipe is just for 1 serving.

Categories     dinner, lunch, quick

Time 10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 tablespoons neutral oil, like grapeseed or corn
1/2 cup popping corn
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter, optional
Salt

Steps:

  • Put the oil in the bottom of a large, deep saucepan (6 quarts or so) with a cover; turn the heat to medium. Add 3 kernels of corn and cover.
  • When the kernels pop, remove the cover and add the remaining corn. Cover and shake the pot, holding the lid on as you do so. Cook, shaking the pot occasionally, until there are a few seconds between popping sounds (a few unpopped kernels are inevitable). Meanwhile, melt the butter (here's where the microwave comes in handy) if you're using it.
  • Turn the popcorn into a large bowl; drizzle with the butter and sprinkle with salt; toss and serve.
