Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Organic popcorn kernels
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Himalayan pink salt
Instructions
Place a large, heavy-bottomed pot on the stove over medium heat.
Add 2 tablespoons of coconut oil to the pot and let it melt completely.
To test if the oil is ready for popping, add a couple of popcorn kernels into the pot. Once they pop, the oil is hot enough.
Add the 1 cup of organic popcorn kernels to the pot in an even layer.
Cover the pot with a lid, leaving a small gap for steam to escape to prevent the popcorn from getting soggy.
Shake the pot gently but continuously, holding the lid on securely, to ensure all kernels are evenly coated in oil and cook evenly.
Once popping slows to about 2 seconds between pops, remove the pot from the heat to prevent burning.
Transfer the popped popcorn immediately to a large bowl.
Sprinkle the popcorn with 1 teaspoon of Himalayan pink salt. Taste and adjust salt as desired for flavor.
Gently toss the popcorn to evenly distribute the salt before serving.
