Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup popcorn kernels
- 3 tablespoons coconut oil or neutral oil
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon truffle oil
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt (or to taste)
Instructions
- Place the coconut oil and popcorn kernels in a large, heavy-bottomed pot with a lid.
- Cover the pot and place it over medium-high heat.
- Once the kernels start popping rapidly, shake the pot gently and continuously until the popping slows to several seconds between pops.
- Remove the pot from the heat and immediately pour the hot popcorn into a very large bowl.
- Drizzle the truffle oil evenly over the hot popcorn. Toss gently to coat.
- Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese and sea salt over the popcorn. Toss again quickly until the cheese adheres evenly.
- Serve immediately for the best flavor and crunch.
Notes
- Use fresh, finely grated Parmesan cheese for the best melt and coating.
- Adjust the truffle oil amount; a little goes a long way.
- If you prefer, you can use melted butter instead of truffle oil, then drizzle the truffle oil on afterward.
