Caramel Popcorn#SundayFunday

This is a movie/theater style Caramel Popcorn. Whenever we go to watch a movie popcorn is a must to buy. Make this at home it's so easy and addictive. I have already posted a recipe on White Chocolate Popcorn.

Ingredients 
100 Grams Popping Popcorn Kernel - popped
1 Cup Granulated Sugar
1 Tablespoons Butter
¼ Teaspoon Salt 

¼ Teaspoon Baking Soda
Method 

Set a heavy base wok or pan on low heat, add the sugar, let the sugar melt on very low heat, do not stir at this stage. 

Once the sugar starts to get some color, stir it carefully on low heat, cook until the entire batch melts and changes the color, as the color changes to light golden brown add the butter and whisk continuously.  

Be careful while whisking as the caramel is very hot, add the baking soda and immediately switch off the flame, stir until it starts to froth, immediately add the butter popcorn and coat the popcorn quickly, remember you have to speed up while doing this step or else it’ll be difficult as the caramel starts to harden as it cools down.  

Transfer the caramel coated popcorn over a baking paper lined tray and spread evenly but be careful, allow the popcorn to cool down and the caramel to harden.  

After the rest break the caramel coated popcorn with hands,  caramel popcorns are ready to devour.

Enjoy these as you are watching television.
