The official flavored popcorn thread

As official as it gets!

OK, you can do the standard of popping popcorn in olive oil on the stove and adding the traditional butter and salt. Damn good end product.

I went to my neighbors and he had what i recall to be jalapeno infused olive oil and we made popcorn with that. Talk about a good tasting heat!

I finally bought some chili infused olive oil and made popcorn with it. Talk about a nice subtle hint of spice that builds up as you eat the popcorn. Delicious. I think my neighbor did have jalapeno though and it was better.

I am in love with flavored popcorn. Anyone else do flavored popcorn? What do you do?

This is a link to the brand I bought. I paid less at a local farmer market ($10). not cheap but at what must be 25-50 cents per batch of popcorn, it's not the end of the world:

Just saw that rosemary is a good choice in flavored popcorn.

EDIT:
I think my neighbor had chili infused because I bought it at the same place he did.

Since I was a little kid I have always wondered what the cheese powder from regular boxed non-Deluxe Kraft Cheese and Macaroni would taste like on home-made popcorn.
 
Still insane for popcorn. We eat mostly kettlecorn, Orvilles microwave isn't bad. We used to have a candy factory, as in a real huge industrial operation, local with a little store where they sold rejects etc. They had a chocolate covered popcorn that was insanely good, but got bought out by some bigger company and changed to nothing special.

For flavored stuff I skip to rice cakes.

Parmesan with butter is good, as is butter, Parmesan, and chili powder.

I've been known to use the cheese packet from Annie's shells and white cheddar Mac and cheese on popcorn. It is delicious.

I eat more popcorn than pasta shells, so that doesn't work out long term. I've currently got some Kernel Seasons white cheddar stuff that's pretty tasty, but I should try that bulk cheese powder linked in this thread.


I cook popcorn in a pot on the stove with oil. Recently been trying coconut oil instead of whatever vegetable oil is on hand. Corn seems a little crispier, but the coconut oil seems to have a lower smoke point and I'm struggling to find the proper heat to pop without taking forever while still not burning. May have to pop less corn at a time.
 
I pop organic popcorn in my air popper and as it comes out I drizzle on pre-melted organic butter. Once its done I add either nutritional yeast, sea salt or garlic powder.
 
Peanut oil in a cast iron dutch oven, add a couple tablespoons of sugar. Heat until the sugar starts to melt or dissolve, or whatever it's doing. Toss in the popcorn kernels. As close as you're going to get to fresh kettle corn. But, in general, I avoid popcorn.
 
I used to have a microwave popcorn that was already sour cream and onion flavored.. Was amazing back then. I haven't seen it since I was a kid. Probably a good thing though.
