Homemade popcorn ingredients:

Corn kernels100g, corn oil 50g, sugar 80g, butter 20g and water 40g.

Cooking steps:

1. Prepare ingredients

2. Add corn oil to the pot, pour corn kernels at 4 minutes heat, and reduce the heat to medium and small.

3. When corn kernels start to burst, cover them and keep shaking the handle.

4. Turn off the fire when all the popcorn pops, and put it out for later use.

5. Put water and sugar into the pot, medium and small fire.

6. Bubble and add softened butter.

7. Keep stirring and cook until caramel color.

8. Pour in popcorn and stir-fry quickly.

Cooking tips:

1, good butter should be dense and smooth at room temperature, without bubbles, bulging, non-sticky, non-fragile, and no attached water vapor.

2, butter must be wrapped in tin foil, and stored separately from foods with strong odor in the refrigerator. Tin foil can prevent butter from being oxidized and deteriorated by light and air.

3, cut a piece down, how the color outside is the same as inside, indicating freshness. If the outside is deeper than the inside, it means that the butter has been oxidized. At this time, you can freeze the butter for about 6 months, and then use it after thawing.

4. It is recommended not to use frozen butter. Because freezing will affect the texture of butter and change its water content. In this way, when the butter softens, it will be granulated by water droplets.
