Elevate your popcorn game with these easy and delicious microwave popcorn recipes, featuring both savory and sweet options.
Place the popcorn kernels in a brown paper bag.
Ensure the bag is folded securely to prevent kernels from escaping.
Fold the top of the bag over twice to seal it.
This helps to keep the popcorn contained while popping.
Microwave the bag on high for 2-4 minutes, or until the popping slows to about 2 seconds between pops.
Stay near the microwave to avoid burning the popcorn.
For the savory topping, mix olive oil, grated parmesan cheese, and ground cumin in a small bowl.
Adjust the seasoning to your taste preference.
For the sweet topping, melt butter in a small bowl and stir in granulated sugar and salt.
Ensure the butter is fully melted for even mixing.
Pour your chosen topping over the freshly popped popcorn and toss to coat evenly.
Use a large bowl to make tossing easier.
Serve the popcorn immediately and enjoy your snack!
Popcorn is best enjoyed fresh and warm.
