Note: Premium popcorns have larger kernels, resulting in a higher yield of popcorn. If using premium popcorn, the yield of popped popcorn will be about 1 cup greater than stated above.
Note: DO NOT use more than 1⁄3 cup of unpopped kernels when using premium popcorn.
The seasoning possibilities for popcorn are endless. Just add your favorite seasoning combined with melted butter and pour through flavor chute as the finished popcorn is mixing.
Note: Serving bowl should not be put into oven.
It is very important to use fresh popcorn. If your popcorn is old, the kernels will not fully pop and/ or it may take a long time for them to pop.
The Cuisinart® EasyPop Plus™ makes delicious caramel popcorn for you and your family. We provide two great recipes for you to try. Due to the high temperature of caramel, there are certain guidelines that need to be followed:
•Always use caution when making caramel and then pouring into your popper.
•Always use a candy thermometer to ensure your caramel is at the proper temperature.
•Caramel should not exceed 300°F when pouring into the flavor dispenser of the EasyPop Plus™.
•We recommend adding liquid such as cream to the caramel to slightly cool to the proper pouring temperature.
•Do not exceed 2/3 cup of caramel for pouring into your popcorn maker.
•Always use the slotted side of the flavor dispenser for pouring caramel.
Butter/seasoning ratios for popcorn
2 tablespoons melted butter for ¼ cup unpopped kernels, and a minimum of 1 teaspoon of seasoning
3tablespoons melted butter for 1⁄3 cup unpopped kernels, and a minimum of
2teaspoons of seasoning
4tablespoons melted butter for ½ cup unpopped kernels, and a minimum of
2½ teaspoons to a tablespoon of seasoning
Note: The amount of seasoning depends on the intensity of the ingredients you are using –
it is important to let your taste and our recipes be your guide.
When adding ingredients through the flavor dispenser, we recommend adding thin liquids like oils and melted butter through the shaker side, and thicker liquids like
caramel through the Slotted Side Shaker Side
slotted side. Some larger items, such as nuts, grated cheese and thick sauces like pesto, should be added directly through the top
of the bowl with the flavor chute removed. (Add dry ingredients, like salt and spices, last, through the unused side.) On caramel and other items requiring melting or heating, allow 30 to 60 seconds before adding.
