POPCORN

as summer ends so does fresh corn. thankfully fall brings on dried corn kernels, aka popcorn! you can find dried corn cobs at the farmers market - specific for popping!

personally- the only way to make popcorn is on the stove top. i also dont have a microwave 🙃

1. remove the kernels in a large bowl (easier to catch the kernels / use your thumb and press downwards, the kernel will fall off)
2. place a pot on the stove at medium high heat
3. GHEE is essential. its the best for popping popcorn. it can stand high heat and is super umami. coat the bottom of the pot + a lil extra - so however that much is :)
4. place the kernels in the heated ghee and cover with a lid
shake with vigor. maybe use a dishtowel to protect your hands from the heat
5.let it pop. wait for the last few to pop!
