What it is
Punjana Original Blend is a type of popcorn kernel designed for home popping. These kernels are specifically selected for their ability to expand when heated, creating a light and fluffy snack.

- Quick comfort food
To prepare, heat a tablespoon of oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add about a quarter cup of the kernels, ensuring they are in a single layer. Cover the pot with a lid, leaving it slightly ajar to allow steam to escape. Shake the pot gently and continuously as the kernels begin to pop. Once the popping slows to several seconds between pops, remove the pot from the heat to prevent burning. Season with your favorite toppings.
How it differs from similar foods
This blend is formulated for optimal popping performance, aiming for a high expansion rate and fewer unpopped kernels compared to some other varieties. The kernels are chosen for their consistent size and moisture content, contributing to a more uniform popping process.

How to keep the rest
Store any unused kernels in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Ensure the container is airtight to maintain the kernels' freshness and prevent them from drying out. This helps preserve their popping quality for future use.
