State Fair Kettle Corn Recipe

Recipe by: happy cook

"This will be an instant family hit; a bowl of the pop corn is so good it won't last a whole movie."

Directions

1Heat the corn oil in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in the corn kernels once hot. When the first couple of kernels pop, stir in the white and brown sugars. Cover the pot with a lid, and agitate the pot in a circular motion on the stove. Allow the corn to pop, agitating constantly, until the rate has slowed down to one pop every two or three seconds. Remove the pot from the stove, and shake the pot until the popping stops. Pour into a large bowl, and allow to cool to room temperature. Break apart the large clumps of popcorn by hand, and season with salt to taste.

Footnotes

Editor's Note
Be very careful when popping the corn and pouring it out of the pot. The sugar will be very hot and can cause severe burns.
Tip
Aluminum foil can be used to keep food moist, cook it evenly, and make clean-up easier.
