Spritzing popcorn with a fine mist of liquid helps seasonings adhere without making the kernels soggy. A light spray of water or vinegar provides a subtle coating for powdered flavors, while butter or oil delivers a classic movie-theater taste. Use a clean spray bottle, mister, or a cooking spray like avocado oil to apply the liquid evenly. This method works for microwave, stovetop, or pre-popped varieties and prevents seasonings from falling to the bottom of the bowl. Seasoning options can range from savory to sweet to suit movie nights, game days, or quick snacks.
Although movie theater concessions are always shockingly overpriced, that doesn't have to stop you from enjoying your favorite snacks at home. A sumptuous bowl of popcorn may be prepared as a quick treat, sustenance for your next movie night, or as part of your game-day party offerings. Choosing from a number of different seasonings to toss with your popcorn will amp up your food with even more flavor. But, to ensure your snack is fully coated with seasonings and stays nice and crisp, spritz the popcorn with either water, vinegar, or any other complementary liquid to provide something for the seasonings to stick to.
Rather than making your popcorn soggy by drenching it with too much liquid like butter or oil, or risking all the seasonings dropping to the bottom of the bowl on dry corn, a fine mist provides the perfect coating to adhere powdered seasoning to your popcorn. In fact, this is the optimal choice if you're planning on adding seasoning packets to your popcorn for a more satisfying snack.
Start with a clean spray bottle or mister and fill it with the liquid of your choosing. Vinegar or water gives a lighter touch to thoroughly coat your popcorn, while butter or oil will give it a more old-fashioned movie theater flavor. This would also work with a cooking spray such as Pompeian 100% Avocado Oil Cooking Spray. From there, it's simply a matter of choosing your favorite seasonings.
