Best St Patricks Day Popcorn Recipes
GREEN POPCORN
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 250 F.
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir in the sugar and light corn syrup. Let it come to a boil. When the sugar dissolves, remove the caramel syrup from the heat.
- Stir in the salt and baking soda. The syrup will bubble up. Let it settle down a bit, stirring, then add the green food coloring.
- Start with 4 to 5 drops. Stir it in. Add more food coloring until it reaches the desired shade of green.
- Place the popcorn in a large mixing bowl. Pour the green caramel syrup over the popcorn. Toss to coat the popcorn well.
- Divide the popcorn between two jelly roll pans that have been lined with Silpat mats. Spread the green popcorn out into an even layer.
- Bake in preheated oven for 30 to 45 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes or so.
- Serve and enjoy immediately, or store the popcorn in an airtight container.
