Follow The Directions

01

Step
7 mins

Pop the popcorn: Using a hot air popper or microwave popper, prepare the popcorn according to the manufacturer's instructions. Aim for light and fluffy popcorn. (Approximately 5-7 minutes)

02

Step
1 mins

Prepare the sesame-butter drizzle: In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter and toasted sesame oil until well combined. (Approximately 1 minute)

03

Step
2 mins

Season the popcorn: Transfer the freshly popped popcorn to a large bowl. Drizzle the sesame-butter mixture evenly over the popcorn. Immediately sprinkle with finely grated Parmesan cheese, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper.

04

Step
2 mins

Toss and serve: Gently toss the popcorn to ensure it's evenly coated with the savory mixture. Serve immediately and enjoy! (Approximately 2 minutes)

For a richer flavor, try using brown butter instead of regular melted butter.
Adjust the amount of salt and pepper to your personal preference.
To keep the popcorn warm, preheat your oven to 200°F (93°C) and place the tossed popcorn on a baking sheet for up to 15 minutes.
Experiment with other cheeses, such as Pecorino Romano or Asiago.

    I've made this several times, and it's always a hit. I sometimes add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little heat.
