Recipe Notes

Did you know you can use your  Le Creuset French Oven for air cooking? Why not try something different with your cast iron pot and make some homemade popcorn for your next movie night.

This Caesar Popcorn recipe is delicious and perfect for a premium stay-at-home movie experience. The seasoning, a mixture of anchovies, garlic and lemon zest, is reminiscent of a classic Caesar cocktail. For an extra elevated movie night, make sure to serve the popcorn alongside the classic cocktail itself.

The only thing difficult about this recipe is deciding what movie to watch while you enjoy this savoury snack. This Caesar popcorn recipe makes 4-6 servings and takes under 30 minutes to make. For larger watch parties and popcorn for two, adjust the portions accordingly and enjoy!

Instructions

1. In a small Saucepan, heat olive oil, anchovies, garlic and lemon zest over medium-low for 2 to 4 minutes. Remove and set aside.


2. Heat peanut oil in a French Oven over medium-high heat.


3. Test the oil by adding 3 or 4 popcorn kernels.


4. When the kernels pop, add the remaining kernels in an even layer and cover with lid. Once the popcorn begins to pop, gently shake the French Oven by moving it back and forth on the burner.


5. Once the popping slows down, remove from heat and remove the lid.


6. Drizzle with seasoning mixture, toss and serve immediately.
