As we miss our in-house Harry Potter fan we are experimenting with some new foods. This post is after the first experiment.

Food Experiment #1 Homemade Kettle Corn

Searching around on the net I found several recipes. The gist seemed to be:

Ingredients = popcorn kernels, veggie oil (had safflower oil on hand), sugar

Used my double boiler for something other than melting chocolate! The lower pan has an uber-thick base which did an excellent job of retaining heat so I didn't have to leave the pan sit on the stove.

Directions = Pour enough oil to cover bottom of pan. Heat. Pour enough popcorn to make single layer of kernels. Sprinkle sugar over top (try to cover all lightly and evenly). Cover + Heat. Shake a bit to keep from burning once things are popping.


Results = Yumm. Good stuff. Glad I didn't have a wider pan! I had to empty out some popcorn out for more to pop... Orville knew his stuff!!
