Water expands when frozen, so it pressurizes the kernels. This makes them easier to 'pop' when the water boils and tries to escape all at once.
I have seen many questions on other sites asking about frozen popcorn. here's ... moisturise starts to vaporize which causes increased pressure in the kernel until .... Will frozen popcorn pop more kernels than room temperature popcorn when.
i think it pops better in room temperature.
i did an experiment on it. the answer is non-frozen.
Ive never seen that done, i think its best kept on pantry shelf. Microwave popcorn can be stored in the freezer. Some processors of microwave popcorn store their product frozen to extend shelf life and to delay rancidity of the fats and oils. Some sites claim that you get more kernels to pop if it is stored frozen.
The greatest factor in popcorn "popage" is the amount of water contained within the kernel. Kernels with little to no moisture will not pop.
nope
no
No, it could be not. i disagree I have seen many questions on other sites asking about frozen popcorn. here's the rules, there are three main components of popcorn. 1 a hard outer shell 2 the carbohydrate which is the white fluffy part 3 the moisture inside in order for popcorn to be frozen and be any good is, that it must be frozen from an unopened pack of plain kernels that was vacuum pack. without vacuum packing you lose the moisture need to make the kernel pop open It then must be popped by oil only not with the microwave so its has to be the plain old fashion popcorn. remember on some products brand name matters and popcorn kernels do. Has to do with processing and the strict quality controls of moisture levels popcorn pops because of the type of kernel it is, it had a very hard outer shell than other types of kernels because of this the moisture which ideally is about 13% of the weight of the kernel. as the kernel heats up the moisturise starts to vaporize which causes increased pressure in the kernel until its burst. Improper freezing will cause 3 problems. the first is loss of the actual moisture and the second is because of the moisture loss the carbohydrate part doesn't get completely changed structurally Thirdly freezing already popped kernels allows moisture to rebuild in the carbohydrate and when enough has accumulated u get freezer burn because ice crystals form and they are very sharp pointy molecules which poke holes and damage the carbohydrate part
No.
because it needs to be room temp.
Most likely yes. But why would you freeze popcorn in the first place? You may find that when frozen popcorn is put in a popcorn machine, the outside of the kernals will "cook" much quicker than the insides will heat up. This means that they kernals may end up burnt on the outside before the oil inside the kernal has reached a heat that will make it pop. This may result in burnt popcorn.
