Snack: Herban Popcorn



after a long day at work and hectic subway ride home, it's nice to come home to a home cooked meal. we do our best to eat healthy, and keep in mind portion control..... i don't usually succeed, but never the less we get it done. afterwards it's the same ole story, take a shower to wash off the day, and then chill in bed with either a book, or to watch a movie. Normally we watch a movie...

in my opinion, no movie is worth watching without a nice bowl of popcorn - and there is no better way to prepare it, than on a stove top. My cousin Russ used to prepare the BEST popcorn when we were growing up. He had a special science and ratio of seeds per oil, and afterwards he would melt butter for the top. Today, it's not so good for me to have butter, but i can have a good seasoning, and nothing top's Bragg: Nutritional Yeast Seasoning.


Nutritional Yeast Seasoning is a live yeast that is easily added to your everyday life. it's cheese like flavor carries several of the B vitamins your body usually misses within a normal diet. Besides all that, it tastes Amazing - i swear it is like having a cheese popcorn, and to know it's healthy is even better. so without rambling on, here is my recipe for Herban Popcorn.

Herban Popcorn

Step 1: The Supplies: Dutch Oven, Sea Salt (Himalayan), Bragg Seasoning,
Organic Popcorn Kernels, Organic Olive Oil

Step 2: Put a single layer of Kernels along the bottom of Dutch Oven -
Cover with a thin layer of Olive Oil

Step 3: Cover

Step 4: Crank up the heat to High - Let pop till there is about 5 seconds between popping

Step 5: Uncover and let steam escape

Step 6: Season with Salt, and Plenty of Bragg's (i usually shake it up so it will spread)

Enjoy!

* i normally buy my kernels in bulk from Perelandra (Brooklyn Heights) &
transfer them to a glass jar for safe keeping.
