Stove top popcorn topped with a gorgeous matcha powder for a distinctive taste and colour.
It’s National Popcorn Day! We love popcorn around here so I thought a new way to eat it was called for.
If you love matcha, this is the popcorn for you. I find with matcha, you either love it or you don’t. Vibrant matcha powder gives this popcorn not only it’s characteristic taste but a gorgeous colour.
Stove Top Popcorn
Just add coconut oil to a large pot. Heat the oil and when you see that the oil has liquified, add a kernel or two to the pot. As soon as that kernel pops, you know the oil is ready. Add the kernels and give it a good swirl, ensuring that all the kernels are coated in the oil. Put a lid on the pot, leaving it a little ajar and enjoy the popping. As soon as you hear the popping taper off, take the pot off the heat. The kernels will continue to pop.
The Flavour
Flavouring the popcorn is easy. Just combine some icing sugar to some matcha powder and sprinkle away. I usually put it in a bowl, add the seasoning, put on the lid and give it a good shake.
