RECIPE TIP

Parmesan popcorn

Prepare 60 g popcorn as described, without sugar or salt. Melt 2 tbsp butter. Place the popcorn and the melted butter in a bowl and add 2 tbsp of finely grated Parmesan, a pinch of salt and, if desired, a little garlic powder. Thoroughly mix all ingredients. Making popcorn is even easier if you put the ingredients into a freezer bag instead of a bowl, and then shake the bag vigorously.

Chocolate popcorn

Prepare 60 g popcorn as described, with a pinch of salt if desired. Carefully heat the chocolate to taste in a double boiler, until it has melted. Mix the popcorn and the melted chocolate in a bowl. Distribute the popcorn and chocolate mixture on a baking sheet lined with baking paper and let the chocolate become firm.
