Ingredients

1/2 cup popcorn kernels
4 tablespoons butter, melted
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1/4 cup grated Pecorino Romano

Directions

Pop the popcorn using a large, heavy pot with a tight-fitting lid or a popcorn maker.

Coat the bottom of the pot with vegetable oil and heat over low heat. Drop in 1 kernel of corn and when it pops add the remaining corn, cover and shake pan. Continue to shake pan until all the corn has popped, being careful not to burn.

Place the popped popcorn in a large bowl. Drizzle with the melted butter and sprinkle with the cheeses. Toss gently to combine and serve immediately.

Great flavor
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My husband and I really liked the flavor of this popcorn. Low heat didn't work for me though; I had to turn it up to medium... to medium-high to get the kernels to pop. We'll make this again!Read more

gourmet indeed!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

tried this recipe because I was just plain tired of just plain popcorn. the taste is great, and it has quickly become a... movie night staple for my husband and I. I use my air popper, then drizzle butter and shake cheese. (if you really ove cheese try CELLO brand cheese mix, it's a great combo of parmesan, asiago and pecorino).Read more
