| Kettle Corn |
Place oil and popcorn in a large skillet that has a tight fitting lid.
The popcorn should barely cover the bottom surface. Heat over
medium until the first kernel starts to pop. Quickly stir in the sugar
until dissolved. Cover and continuously shake skillet while holding
top. Be careful, this will burn much quicker than regular popcorn.
When you think all is popped, remove from heat. Spoon the popped
corn into a bowl while shaking once in a while to let the uncooked
kernels settle. Salt lightly, and break up into pieces.
(Note: This may take a little practice, but well worth the effort!)|

Some tips on making Kettle Corn at home
Reviewed by Velma, 2007-03-17 I recently got into the kettle corn biz because I love the stuff so much. Here's some tips that I would suggest if you're doing at home. There's a difference between using corn oil and vegetable/canola oil Corn oil somehow gives the kettle corn a little more "corny" taste. Before I bought a giant hot kettle to make the stuff, I tried doing it on a stove. It wasn't the same as the festival stuff, just OK. The reason is you need a VERY HOT heat source to BROWN the white sugar. Just using brown sugar gives it a different taste. What I would suggest if you DO try to attempt it at home is melt and brown the white sugar somehow before you put it in a popper.
I've got a funny video on my website which shows how us pros make kettle corn:
