How do you to make kettle corn?

Answer 1

Old Fashioned Kettle Corn Ingredients * 1/2 cup unpopped popcorn * 1/4 cup white sugar * 1/4 cup vegetable oil * 1/4 teaspoon seasoning salt (or use white salt) Directions # Place the oil in the bottom of a large pot. # Add in the unpopped popcorn kernels with the sugar and salt (Apply lid). # Over a medium heat begin to pop the popcorn, constantly shaking the pot to ensure that the popcorn kernels and oil do not burn. # Once the popping has slowed down remove the pot from the heat. The ingredient list is spot on. It's VERY hard to not burn the sugar while only shaking the pot over a stove. I would suggest you heat the oil and sugar FIRST, caramelize the mixture to a golden brown and get it very hot...THEN throw in the popcorn. Then try shaking it. Other suggestion: I would at the very least stir the mixture while it's heating up with the cover off of your pot. Once it gets going, slam the lid and see how you do shaking like crazy. My final suggestion: You really need to be stirring the sugar/oil mixture vigorously to prevent scorching. If you're really determined to do it right, I'd use a wooden spoon to mix everything while it pops. Yup, you'll have to remove the cover and get some protection for your face and hands. This is what I do when I make it. Take a peek at the video on my website link below on how I make kettle corn with the professional equipment.

Cover the bottom of a high-sided pot or kettle with pure corn oil. Make certain that the oil is filled to a level that ensures all popcorn kernels will be just covered. Step 2 Place one or two kernels of popcorn in the kettle and wait until these kernels pop. This serves as a test of the oil's temperature. Remove the test kernels from the kettle. Step 3 Pour white or yellow popping corn into the pot and allow kernels to just cover the bottom of the kettle in a uniform manner. Adding more popcorn will only result in poor popping of the kernels. Step 4 Let the kernels begin to heat and pop. Once a continuous and rapid popping action is heard, shake the kettle or stir the kernels to keep them from burning on the bottom of the pot. Keep popping the corn until popping slows to almost nothing. Remove from heat. Step 5 Add sugar and salt while fluffing the kettle corn in the kettle. Toss the kernels in a circular motion until all the kernels are covered with a good amount of salt and suga
