Popcorn

It is no secret that I love popcorn… but I admit I never knew it was a healthy snack. Ok so if you get the toffee popcorn or cover it in sugar or butter and salt it’s not, but freshly popped corn with a spinkling of sweetener makes an ideal “need something sweet” craving buster.

There has been much talk about this recently on twitter.  A couple of my friends now have popcorn makers and say how much they enjoy having homemade popcorn.  Then another friend, Rob Griggs-Taylor, tweeted me some instructions in real time while he made a batch:

1) The ingredients
2) Put some oil in the pan
3) Add the corn once the oil is warm
4) Wait...
5) Shake the pan around regularly
6) Done

He even took a video of the popping here: http://www.twitvid.com/6GX72

So I tried it today, in my normal stainless steel pan with opaque lid, following the above instructions and look…

I admit that all the popcorn I made has now gone… but it’s ok coz it’s practially good for me and I’ve got more corn to make another batch tomorrow!!

I would definitely recommend it.
