Caramel Popcorn

Instructions

  1. Heat the sunflower oil in a nonstick skillet. Add the corn kernels and cover the pan.
  2. Let the popcorn pop for about 5–7 minutes depending on the heat. Set aside.
  3. In a saucepan, melt the butter with the sugar. Let it cook until the caramel becomes golden (but not burned).
  4. Add the vanilla and salt, stir well, then add the baking soda. The caramel will foam and thicken—this is normal.
  5. Immediately pour the caramel over the popcorn.
  6. Using two spoons, mix quickly so that all the popcorn gets coated before the caramel hardens.
  7. Spread the popcorn on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  8. Separate clusters slightly and let cool. Then enjoy!
