Popcorn as good as the theater's, with a kick! The seasoning is salty, spicy, and a little smoky. All you need is a large pot or metal bowl; I use a large 2-gallon metal bowl. Omit the chili powders if you don't like it spicy.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 0.5 cups white popcorn kernels
- 0.5 teaspoons popcorn salt , divided
- 0.13 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.13 teaspoons onion powder
- 0.13 teaspoons ground cayenne pepper
- 0.13 teaspoons ground chipotle chile pepper
- 0.13 teaspoons ground ancho chile pepper
Instructions
-
1
Heat canola oil in a large pot over medium-high heat; add 1 popcorn kernel to hot oil. The oil is ready when kernel pops.
-
2
Pour popcorn kernels into hot oil; season with 1/2 of the popcorn salt. Stir to coat. Cover the pot with a sheet of aluminum foil. Poke about 10 holes into the aluminum foil using a knife. Cook popcorn until all kernels are popped, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove the pot from heat.

Sprinkle popcorn with remaining popcorn salt, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, chipotle chile pepper, and ancho chile pepper. Toss to evenly coat.
