"In the snack hall of fame, popcorn's status is cemented. It's an eternally perfect snack: crunchy and airy, satisfying and starchy on its own but also an ideal canvas for an infinite number of flavor additions, and even healthy depending on how you make it. From a good, old-fashioned buttered tub for movie night to spicy citrus flavored popcorn when you want a snack to impress party guests, you might be popping kernels fairly often."
"All you have to do is set your slow cooker to sauté, let it heat up for a few minutes, and then add some fat to keep the corn kernels from sticking to the cooker's bottom. Add your kernels once the oil or butter is hot, and don't forget to stir everything for an even coating before placing the lid on the cooker to let the popping magic begin."
Popcorn is a versatile snack that is crunchy, airy, and suited to many flavors while remaining healthy depending on preparation. A slow cooker can pop kernels by using the sauté setting to heat oil or butter, adding kernels, stirring for even coating, covering, and listening for popping to slow, usually in three to four minutes. Slow cooker popcorn takes about the same time as microwave popcorn and allows control over saturated fat and sodium. Popping at home avoids processed additives and supports vintage methods like stove-top popping. Flavor options range from buttered tubs to spicy citrus or other creative seasonings.
