Instructions

Let’s break down the process into easy-to-follow steps.

Step 1: Pop the Popcorn. If using stovetop popcorn, pop the kernels in a large pot with a little oil according to your preferred method. If using microwave popcorn, prepare it according to the package instructions.

Step 2: Make the Seasoning. In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, pickle juice, dried dill, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, smoked paprika (if using), and cayenne pepper (if using).

Step 3: Toss the Popcorn. Place the popped popcorn in a large bowl. Drizzle the butter mixture over the popcorn while tossing to evenly coat. It’s important to do this while the popcorn is still warm, so the butter mixture distributes evenly.

Step 4: Add Parmesan (Optional). If using Parmesan cheese, sprinkle it over the popcorn and toss again to combine.

Step 5: Serve & Enjoy. Enjoy the Dill Pickle Popcorn immediately, or store it in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

Theses instructions are very easy and quick.
