With the exception of the film, popcorn is probably my favourite part of going to the movies. Actually come to think of it there's probably a few films that I would have walked out of if I hadn't had a popcorn tub the size of my mop bucket to chomp through! I've tried to make popcorn at home but it's never been great. Microwave popcorn tastes a bit plastic & the time I tried to pop my own, I ended up having to send a pan to kitchen heaven with a irreversibly scorched bottom! So when I was mooching around Great Portland Street killing time before a meeting I was excited to find ZaraMamaS Gourmet Popping Corn. It's a completely natural dried corn on the cob that comes with a bag so you can pop it in the microwave.
Put the cob into the bag & tie up the top
Pop it in the microwave for 2 minutes until the popping stops...
...you get a lovely fresh bag of popcorn
The kernels just pop themselves off the cob!
It's really tasty & I like the fact you can season it yourself. I split my batch in two & seasoned half with salt & pepper, the other half I drizzled (ok maybe more than drizzled!) with maple syrup which was absolutely delicious! ZaraMamaS products are available from deli's & farm shops across the country, have a look at their
website for more tasty treats. I'm off to pick a movie to watch with my popcorn, Rebecca x
Gosh, I've never seen these before! It looks and sounds so weird, yet strangely compelling. It's got to be more fun than the usual boring microwave bags.
ReplyDeletenever seen popcorn like that before made my own but not on the cob looks cool
