Default Boiled Popcorn

Boiled Popcorn

Ingredients: Popcorn(old fashioned-not microwave)

Directions:
Put un-popped pop corn in the slow cooker over night, or at least 8 hours.
Make sure you keep an eye on the water and don't let it dry out.
In the morning drain & cool...Then serve...
I make about 4 cups of popcorn at a time... I add about 6 cups of water...
What ever is left over I put in little snack bags and freeze it.
The popcorn kernels almost double in size and they get soft...

You can also do it in a pan on the stove just make sure it has enough water....
when it gets soft.... remove it, & cool,serve and bag up leftovers.

Can be served alone or with veggies,fruits,etc. We like it with Mama's sprinkle mix on it.

I tried it on the stove top once and it didn't work.....I will give it a go in my slow cooker.

Thanks for the tip!

Never actually tried it on the stove, I always put it in my slow cooker before I go to bed and it's ready when I get up.

Callao just blew you a kiss for sharing this recipe! He loves it! I didn't have all of the ingredients for the sprinkle...I used cayenne, garlic powder and dill.
