Calling all jalapeno lovers... Aldi has a new seasonal flavor out called Cheddar and Jalapeno Popcorn, and it's a spicy one! I love me some heat, and on a scale of 1 to 10, I'd put this at about a 6, maybe 7. But I have a suggestion to tone it down just a tad if interested... The gold colored popcorn is Aldi's, the white popcorn is my homemade kettle corn. Yep, the addition of a little sweetness was just enough to mellow the 'peno and allow me to enjoy a bigger bowl. I'm all about the bigger bowl:@) Don't hesitate to grab a bag if you see it, good stuff folks.
The popcorn:
Lighter Homemade Kettle Corn-One/Two servings:
1/4 C popcorn
1 Tblsp vegetable oil
1 Tblsp sugar
Salt to taste
1/4 C popcorn
1 Tblsp vegetable oil
1 Tblsp sugar
Salt to taste
- Add oil, sugar, and 3 kernels to 2-3 quart pan with lid, heat over medium heat. **Be very careful, melting sugar is very hot**
- Once the corn begins to pop add the rest, add lid, and give pan a good shake.
- Shake vigorously until popping slows down. Be careful to remove popcorn from pan before it burns.
- Pour into bowl, add salt.
- Carefully mix the two types of popcorn and allow to cool for a couple minutes.
- Once it has completely cooled down, leftovers can be added back to the bag, or a Lock-N-Lock, for storage.
Enjoy a snack and Have a Happy Day:@)
Sounds like a great combo of flavors! I’ll be checking at Aldi’s for that jalapeño popcorn.
