Setting dinner aside, I like y popcorn as a snack, and am always looking for new flavours to to it with. I have a recipe for a sour cream and onion topping, but I wanted a change.
I had an idea...got out the old food dehydrator:
Yes, those are pickles - dill pickles. After a time, they looked like this;
This was a test run, so crushed them up in the mortar and pestle:
Air popped some kernels, added olive oil to allow the flavouring to stick, and it was very good:
So, dehydrated a whole jar of larger pickles, and ended up with this powder for future snacking:
It produces little powder, and you need a fair bit to get the flavour (I used the whole tray in the fist photo for one batch of popcorn), so I might have to get a gigantic jar of pickles from Costco or something in the future. If you like popcorn and dill pickles, give it a try!
I might do some jalapenos or something next...
