Popcorn Base

Method

Preparation

1

Pop the Popcorn

In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add a few popcorn kernels to the pot and cover it. Once the kernels pop, add the rest of the popcorn kernels, cover, and shake the pot occasionally until popping slows down. Remove from heat.

2

Make the Spicy Seasoning

In a small bowl, mix together cayenne pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and sugar.

3

Combine and Serve

While the popcorn is still warm, sprinkle the spicy seasoning over the popcorn. Toss well to coat evenly. Serve immediately.
