The key to this recipe is cooking the popcorn in vegetable oil. Popcorn prepared in a hot-air popper will be too dry for the spices to stick to. You may want to make a double batch for your kids to snack on after school or while doing their homework.
8 cups freshly popped popcorn (about 1/3 cup kernels cooked in 3 tbsp. of vegetable oil)
1 tsp. no-salt seasoning
Chili powder
Directions
Put the popped popcorn into a paper bag and sprinkle on the seasoning. Add 1/4 teaspoon of chili powder, fold over the top of the bag, and shake it vigorously.
Sample the popcorn to see if it is spicy enough for your family. If not, add more chili powder, 1/4 teaspoon at a time, until the popcorn passes your kids' taste test. Makes 8 cups.
