Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Popcorn kernels
- 1 teaspoon Himalayan pink salt
- 1 second spray Olive oil spray
Instructions
Place an air popper on a stable surface and ensure it is clean and ready for use.
Measure out 1 cup of popcorn kernels using a measuring cup.
Pour the popcorn kernels into the air popper's reservoir.
Turn on the air popper and allow the kernels to pop. This process takes approximately 5 to 7 minutes. During this time, the popcorn will spill out into a large bowl placed in front of the machine.
While the popcorn is still warm, lightly spray it with olive oil spray to help the salt adhere. Be sure to quickly move the spray can across the surface of the popcorn to avoid saturating any particular spot.
Sprinkle the Himalayan pink salt evenly over the popcorn.
Toss the popcorn gently in the bowl using clean hands or a large spoon to evenly distribute the salt.
Taste and adjust the salt if necessary.
Serve immediately or store leftovers in a sealed airtight container to maintain freshness.
