• 1/4 teaspoon Salt

Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.

Instructions

1. 1To pop the popcorn using a stovetop method: Place a large heavy-bottomed pot on the stove and heat it over medium-high heat, which is approximately 175°C, for 2 minutes until hot. Add the 1/2 cup Popcorn Kernels to the dry, hot pot, immediately cover the pot with a lid, and gently shake the pot back and forth over the heat as the kernels begin to pop. Continue shaking until the popping slows to several seconds between pops, which usually takes 3-5 minutes.
2. 2Alternatively, to pop the popcorn using an air popper: Place the 1/2 cup Popcorn Kernels into the air popper's popping chamber. Turn on the air popper and allow it to run until the popping stops completely, typically taking 3-5 minutes.
3. 3While the popcorn is popping or immediately after it has finished, measure the 1 tablespoon Olive Oil into a small bowl. Carefully transfer all of the popped popcorn into a large bowl.
4. 4Drizzle the 1 tablespoon Olive Oil evenly over all of the popped popcorn in the large bowl.
5. 5Measure the 2 tablespoons Nutritional Yeast and the 1/4 teaspoon Salt. Sprinkle the 2 tablespoons Nutritional Yeast and the 1/4 teaspoon Salt evenly over the popcorn, ensuring it lands on the olive oil-coated kernels.
6. 6Using your hands or two large spoons, gently toss the popcorn in the large bowl for 30-60 seconds, until all the kernels are evenly coated with the olive oil, nutritional yeast, and salt. Serve the Homemade Popcorn with Nutritional Yeast immediately.
