I use ghee to make popcorn because butter would burn before it got hot enough to pop the corn (olive oil too.) Ghee, peanut oil, corn oil…all OK. But melted butter poured over the already popped corn, in my book, tastes much better than ghee.

Popcorn’s always been a favorite comfort food on a cold, rainy day. Especially while reading.

we have an air-popper that we love. doesn’t use any oil or butter (other than what we add when it’s done), plus it’s fun to watch. I think our two-year-old likes the activity almost as much as eating it afterwards. almost.

Oh, and about the ghee—are you saying I shouldn’t use plain ole buttah?

My boys are just getting into popcorn, now that we are starting to be past the popcorn-as-choking-hazard age, and I am so pleased to have this recipe and inspiration, thank you!
