Central Market Popcorn Variety Pack
What it is
This is a collection of individual popcorn kernels, pre-portioned for easy preparation. It offers a selection of classic flavors, typically including plain, salted, and sweet options. The kernels are designed to be popped using standard stovetop or air-popping methods, providing a convenient way to enjoy freshly made popcorn at home. Each pack contains a specific weight of kernels, ensuring a consistent serving size for each flavor.

To prepare, simply heat a tablespoon of oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add the desired amount of kernels, cover the pot, and shake gently as the kernels begin to pop. Once the popping slows to several seconds between pops, remove the pot from the heat. For seasoned varieties, the flavor is often infused during the popping process or added immediately after. Adjust seasoning to your preference if using plain kernels.
