Jalapeño popcorn seasoning.
SpiceItUp! Jalapeño Dusting Salt is a ready-made jalapeño seasoning. Shake it over hot buttered popcorn, warm chips or fries for a salty, spicy snack with a subtle hint of cumin.
Recipe
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup popcorn kernels
- 1 tbsp neutral oil, for popping
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 to 2 tsp SpiceItUp! Jalapeño Dusting Salt, to taste
Steps
Pop the corn
Heat the oil in a large lidded pot over medium-high heat with three kernels. When they pop, add the rest, cover and shake the pot occasionally until the popping slows to a few seconds apart.
Butter
Pour the popcorn into a large bowl and drizzle with melted butter while tossing.
Season
Sprinkle on 1 teaspoon of Jalapeño Dusting Salt, toss, taste, and add more if you like.
More ways to use it
- Chips: warm kettle chips in a 350°F oven for 3 minutes, then toss with a pinch of dusting salt.
- Fries: season fries the moment they come out of the fryer or oven so the salt sticks.
- Roasted nuts: toss warm roasted almonds or pecans with a little butter and dusting salt.
- Skip the extra salt. Dusting salt is already salted, so it replaces regular salt rather than adding to it.
