We like popcorn during winter months. A few years ago a family friend gave us a huge bag of Amish popcorn. It was really good and it led us to Lehman’s store as a source for a really good stove top popper - one with a heavy bottom, glass dome lid with a handcrank sweep, and a rubber port in the lid to add the corn when the test kernels start to pop and to add butter if desired.
As a traditionalist, it was perfect.
Have tried some different varieties of popping corn, some local, some Amish, etc.
We don’t see a great difference in corn but prefer the “no hull” type.
Instead of butter, we have now discovered Costco brand Parmesan with truffle and black garlic topping. I have tried it on other foods but somehow nothing else comes close to the taste of it on popcorn. Probably because the popcorn itself doesn’t add a lot of its own flavor.
Tried microwave and air poppers in the past but just not as good as stove top.
Still like sea salt and real butter but if you are a “popper” and a Costco shopper give it a try.
Anybody have any alternatives to recomend?
