Kettle Corn

Makes about 10 cups

¼cup granulated sugar

¼cup unsalted butter, cut into small cubes

¹/3 cup popcorn kernels

½ teaspoon kosher or sea salt

1.Put the sugar into a heavy-bottomed saucepan and place over medium heat. Leave the sugar over the heat for about 10 to 15 minutes, shaking the pan every few minutes. The sugar should still be white and granular, but will smell of caramel.

3.Remove the chute and put the kernels into the popping chamber. Replace chute and insert butter warming cup.

4.Place a large bowl underneath the chute and turn unit on.
