Preparation Instructions:
A friend of mine recommended that I try this best kettle corn popcorn recipe, which calls for Meijer peanut oil instead of your typical vegetable variety. After trying it once, I am now somewhat hooked on making homemade kettle corn with peanut oil, as it gives the flavor a much richer full bodied flavor. So definitely give this recipe a try if you are looking for a kettle corn flavor that is a bit off the beaten path. To get the recipe started, first you will want to take out a deep cooking pop with a nonstick inner surface. Don't use an old gritty pot with a rough lining, as it's likely to cause the sugar to burn. Moving along, place your pot on a burner that has been set to medium high heat. Next pour in the peanut oil, any brand will work fine. Let the oil reach a very hot scorching temperature, then pour in the white popcorn kernels, white pure cane sugar, and kosher salt. Stir these tasty ingredients around until you have a nice even distribution, then place a tightly sealed lid over the top of the cooking pot. Once the lid is secure, proceed to shake the ingredients steadily right through the popping process, and until the popcorn popping has slowed to once every two to three seconds. At this point remove the hot pot from the burner, and continue to shake the popcorn inside until the pot cools, as you don't want the sugar to burn. Once the popcorn is cool, you can then pour it into a large serving bowl. If your hot kettle corn has clumped together, then simply stir it around in the bowl to loosen it up.
