The Simple Seasoning Ina Garten Puts On Her Popcorn
BY MICHELLE WELSCH
If you're tired of plain popcorn, take a hint from Ina Garten. She spices up microwave popcorn with a blend of butter, cheese, chipotle chile powder, and fleur de sel.
Microwave your popcorn as usual, then toss with melted butter, a half cup of grated Parmesan, a half teaspoon of chipotle chili powder, and 2 teaspoons of fleur de sel.
Shake up your popcorn to ensure the flavors mix thoroughly and then dig into the cheesy, buttery, slightly spicy popcorn as you watch your favorite shows.
You can also experiment with smoked paprika, cayenne, or sriracha powder in place of chili powder, or blends like chipotle chili, onion, garlic, and cumin to create a rich flavor.
