Gourmet Popcorn - Bulk

Blue popcorn. Red popcorn. White popcorn. Rainbow popcorn (medley of red, blue and yellow popcorn). Our Native American descendents learned and passed on their secrets for growing.

Kokopelli's popcorn is grown for us in the fertile farmlands of the great state of Illinois. A premium popcorn that we believe can't be surpassed. You'll be quite surprised with its extraordinary flavor and texture.

No, the popcorn DOESN'T pop in colors! This is the question most asked. Wish it did.

Since the popcorn isn't offered in a microwave bag, we've had quite a few people ask how to pop the corn. There are a number of options:

• Air Poppers
• Microwave Rice Cooker
• Microwave & Brown Bag Method
  Place ¼ cup of unpopped kernels in a brown paper lunch bag. Fold the top over a few times. Microwave for a few minutes - your popcorn will pop with consistency like an air popper (because it's not popped in oil).
• Simple Pot & Stove Method
  Cover the bottom of a large pot (4-6 qt) with 1-to-2 tablespoons of oil (such as vegetable, peanut, corn, soy). Throw a kernel of popcorn in, cover the pan and turn the stovetop burner to medium heat. When that kernel has popped your oil is heated so add the rest of your popcorn (about ½ cup of unpopped kernels). Cover the pot loosely (you need to allow the steam to escape) and shake to cover the popcorn with oil. With the pot covered, continue to cook the popcorn over medium heat; shake the pot frequently to prevent burning. (If your oil smokes, the heat's too high). When the popping slows (3-5 seconds between pops), remove the pan from the heat and let stand (covered) until the popping stops (about 1 minute).

Regardless of how your popcorn is popped, pour your finished product into a pot and salt & butter to taste. Or, for some more interesting toppings, check out our Popping for Popcorn information page.
