"I eat this popcorn multiple times every week. It’s adapted from a Melissa Clark recipe. Thanks, Melissa!"


Herbed Popcorn

Ingredients

  • ½ cup popcorn kernels

  • ½ cup canola oil

  • 2 tsp Provençal Basil

  • Pinch Cobanero Chili (optional)

  • ¼ tsp fresh ground Zanzibar black peppercorns

  • ½ tsp salt

  • ½ cup nutritional yeast

Directions

  1. Grind down all the spices aside from nutritional yeast in a mortar and pestle or spice grinder. Then add nutritional yeast to create a fine powder.

  2. Heat oil in a medium pot on a medium high flame. Add a few kernels of popcorn and once they pop, add the rest.

  3. Put a tight-fitting lid on the pot. After the popcorn has been popping rapidly and it starts to slow down to a pop every few seconds, turn the flame off. Quickly transfer the popcorn to a large bowl and toss with the spices. The amount of oil and the heat will help the spices stick to every kernel!
