What could be better than watching a long-awaited movie with family or friends on your favorite sofa?! After all, this is how we spend most of our time after work or on weekends. But in order to get as close as possible to the atmosphere that prevails in the cinema, you will need to take care of its main attribute - popcorn.
I can tell you for sure that there is no need for special culinary skills or any additional kitchen gadgets. Everything is so simple that from now on the process of making popcorn will become a tradition for you while watching the next TV series.
The first thing to start with is choosing specialty sweet corn.
Not every variety is suitable for popcorn, but only one with a low starch content.
At the same time, the grains of such corn are covered with a thin but strong shell. It is sold most often in large supermarkets or markets. The price of such corn is very affordable, so stock up on it in large quantities at once. It will definitely not be superfluous, since the popcorn turns out to be very tasty.
The next step is the cooking process. The classic option is to use the microwave. But since I do not have it, I found an equally simple and quick way to make popcorn. All you need is a frying pan with a lid, a little vegetable oil and a pinch of salt.
In order not to miss anything, follow the step-by-step instructions:
- Place a skillet over medium heat and add some vegetable oil.
- To give the popcorn a salty taste, I add a pinch of salt. Any seasonings can be used instead of salt.
- Once the pan is warm, pour the corn kernels onto it.
And remember - go to sleep only after the oil warms up well
- Spread the grains evenly over the bottom of the pan.
- Cover immediately and reduce heat to low.
As it warms up, the corn shell will begin to thin out. And as soon as a sufficient amount of steam is collected inside the grain, its shell will rupture. At this moment, you can hear a clap.
It will take about 4 minutes to cook 100 grams of corn. But even with such a small portion of grains, you get a whole bowl of popcorn.
Even if you do not have a suitable frying pan with a lid, then take a regular saucepan and repeat all the same steps according to the instructions.
As you can see, it is not at all difficult to prepare a delicious treat for a family movie watching.
