Magical 7-Spice Umami Popcorn with Carla Lalli Music

[@CarlaLalliMusic123]

Who else sneaks nutritional yeast into the movie theater, be honest

[@hbp867]

Will now

[@virginiaf.5764]

I sneak my already popped nutritional yeast popcorn in the movies. I don't understand how/why people started thinking popping popcorn was such a difficult thing to do. It literally takes minutes and is so much better than microwaved popcorn.

[@drunk.werewolf3143]

holy crap genius move

[@mannkitchen]

Every. Single. Time.

[@GwynneDear]

I don’t go to the movies. Too many people in there. But if I did, nutritional yeast would be a must.

[@meredithalden4204]

this entire video proves exactly why carla is amazing at her craft.. 10 minutes of enthusiasm about popcorn... I friggin love it

Petition to get Carla a bigger bowl for tossing popcorn.

[@joechapman8208]

She would just use the overhead to make more popcorn

[@karengallagher345]

Bigger bowl, for sure! I guess she just wants to sample the “spillage” Love me some popcorn!

Or split the batch...season and combine

[@ashleysummers4465]

I don’t think I’ve ever heard someone speak about popcorn the way I feel about popcorn. This brought me so much joy. 🍿 ❤

[@claysmith8840]

I’m with you, I don’t think ever related to a video more than this one

[@yawaitzy]

I love that pulling out the blender is the line carla has when it comes to popcorn!

[@andrecanis4894]

I confess I use the blender. But I also put sesame seeds into the mix so blending is necessary. Also, I make a lot of seasoning at once, so it lasts for a few weeks of popcorn 😊

[@alvareo92]

@@andrecanis4894 Sesame seeds!!!! That's incredible. My favourite seed/nut

[@alvareo92]

You could also use a small spice/coffee grinder!

[@amberh3077]

I made this 2 hrs after it premiered and ate it alllll. My previous attempts at popcorn seasoning failed because I was not drizzle drazzling correctly. Thanks Carla 🥰

[@rebeccasmythe8125]

When you talk about using the bottom third of the popcorn as seasoning scoopers -- I've never felt so seen!!!!! 10/10 the best part of the bowl

[@thaniaxo]

I started popping my own popcorn a year ago and it is far more superior than microwave popcorn. It taste 100x better and its easy and fast to make.

[@overlordbakerofdoom]

That happy little Carla giggle is so endearing, it makes me smile every time in every video

[@lillisketch]

I made popcorn immediately after watching this video, and the coating in generous oil technique resulted in no unpopped kernels! WHAT A REVELATION.

[@ctwest3601]

Dear Carla, I have enjoyed your recipes for years and for the first time I think I can tell you something worth trying. One night, we tried rosemary popcorn, which appeared to fail completely as it was added to the pot during popping and (in hindsight, obviously) all it did was stick to the pan. Yet the result was staggeringly delicious. It had been perfumed by the aromatic! Now, I use whole sprigs of rosemary or fresh bay leaves regularly. Once I even did a chicken soup flavored popcorn: Nothing during popping, but after popping return it to the pot *on a steamer basket* with celery seeds, a sprig of thyme, and a couple of bay leaves (go HARD on the bay leaf in any way and it's crazy delicious). Not much heat, maybe 5 minutes? Use your nose. Then toss with salt, onion powder (much less than you used garlic powder), parm (or the substitution I assumed you'd prefer), and some very well patted dry fresh flat parsley. Does it taste like chicken noodle soup? Freakishly so. Is that in any way desirable for popcorn? Somehow also yes, and again freakishly so.

[@trayvixk4642]

Even though popcorn isn't my thing, the way Carla is so serious about it makes it so relatable it comes to a favorite snack. Can't wait to try out this recipe.

[@lilmissj506]

I have never felt more seen as a big bowl of popcorn for one, “more nutritional yeast, please”, scoop up all the seasonings gal myself. I’m so happy to be in this club with you!

[@pugglelover135]

POPCORN PROCRASTINATION i am literally 100% for this and will now implement it into my daily routine 😍😍

[@mitchbonkoski2096]

We just put this seasoning on smashed potatoes and brussel sprouts! Amazing!!!

[@MissGhostface]

CARLA! I was always ashamed of my popcorn spice scooping, and here you are, telling me this is optimal popcorn enjoyment. 😂 I will never hang my head over my popcorn bowl in shame again. 💜

[@ShaylaRMcDaniel]

I too think about popcorn daily & eat it almost daily. Dipping the kernels in the seasonings at the bottom - yes. Eating it in bed - yes. Sticking to me and in every nook & cranny when I get up - yes. This is the popcorn recipe I needed, so glad to have landed here!

[@chefevilee9566]

When I was a little girl we would go buy vegetables from a local farmer. He would grow his own popcorn and have a popcorn dinner every Friday night. Well throughout the years I have had my share of popcorn and tomato juice dinners a nod to the old farmer. But I really want to start applying it big-time this winner on Saturday night. I’m with Jesus but still a Jew. So at the end of Shabbat I would love to have my popcorn dinner! So I am glad to have this recipe.

[@myblissfullife]

I've never met anyone who likes popcorn more than me...until now! Love seeing this and the awesome recipe. Nutrition yeast at the movies is a requirement!

[@hazeldunaway3990]

She’s so serious about this popcorn I love it

[@JoaoIsntJohn]

I make popcorn almost the exact same way with a "recipe" I made up, the only difference is Cayenne and spicy smoked paprika instead of the chilli Flakes. I really want some now 🤤

[@IAmLucipurr]

I'm slowly finding all my favorite bon appetit chef's channels because I've wondered where they've gone after they left and it's making me so happy. you and Molly were my favorites there and I just found both your channels. this makes my heart so happy.

[@lovingthelessloved3679]

Wait till you see Claire saffitz "dessert person", it's magic! , Rick and solah also have great videos out with other channels.

[@christinecasifora6527]

Perfect method and seasonings! I have found perfection! I used coconut oil to pop the white corn kernels and the nutritional yeast, salt, evoo, and garlic powder was the perfect umami flavor! I’m HOOKED! Thank you Carla!!

[@ND-nx1nt]

Finally someone that loves popcorn as much as I do.

[@kailadwinell5966]

She's not wrong. For YEARS i ate stovetop popcorn with my own seasonings every single night after dinner & before bed, sometimes I ate popcorn FOR dinner honestly love it

[@joerecoveryjoerecovery5781]

This is the best CLM video. The passion is real.

[@local_tomatillo]

Thank you for talking so seriously about popcorn! I love it!

[@markbrower497]

You had the perfect description for the way we all use popcorn to scrape the spice garden at the bottom of the bowl *chef’s kiss*

[@marialane1805]

This has made me so happy! I’m not the only one that eats a family size bag of popcorn!

[@alyssarose4220]

Carla knows how to live and I will listen. *currently sitting with a bowl of sweet caradom and pepper pop corn.*

[@willowz22]

You are a woman after my own heart! 🍿💕

[@djsa6218]

Absolutely salute you. I have never witnessed anything like this video. I am an occasional popcorn muncher but your passion as viewed on this video has me thinking i may need popcorn as my new bestie.

[@andyArt5]

This is crazy how close to my personal popcorn seasoning this is! I can attest to its deliciousness. My one difference is I use a lemon pepper with MSG in it.

[@JudiChristopher]

I am an Acting Teacher... I LOVE this Video... You are GREAT... "Brava Darling... Brava" EXCELLENT VIDEO... "ENCORE"

[@catbrodeur623]

I buy nooch both powdered and flaked...i absolutely switched to powdered on popcorn...I love that you're a nooch person💚

[@TheOctapodi]

So awesome that you bring nutritional yeast to the movies. Hilarious. And I'm stealing that.

[@jackm3143]

Popcorn is such a rare treat for me because I'd literally eat enough to make myself sick unless someone physically stops me

[@bluerose6859]

I'm so happy to see I'm not a popcorn freak after all and I'm not the only one obsessed with popcorn! Thanks for this video Carla! I can't wait to give this recipe a try!

The passion for the popcorn makes me so happy! My kids and I were underwhelmed by air popped popcorn last week and this is the tutorial we needed for movie night tonight! 🤩🙌🏻✨😋

[@crocusancyrensisr]

Thank U so much. I am a huge fan of pop corns too. I even do not share the whole batch with my. kids. I ordered the missing ingredients right away. I cannot wait!!!

[@jjfaceplant]

Ok I have made this SEVERAL times since this came out and can confirm - best pop ever

Thanks! May Jesus continue to bless you and your family

[@kailetaylor021]

Spice garden! Love it lol

[@dougintothesunset]

That looks yummy . . . I also like dill weed, sriracha, lemon juice in a fine spray, powdered parm and occasionally a little honey or maple syrup. The hot sauce and the honey make a nice combo. Thank you for sharing! 🙂

[@konrai1972]

Agree about the bottom of the bowl is the best part. Try furikaki seasoning. It's really good on popcorn too.

[@AlexandraAndStuff]

I totally get it, because I will choose a crunchy, salty and/or umami snack over a sweet dessert any day. There is no amount of chips or Doritos that is too much for me, and I will be 100% trying this one!

[@davidlj]

Great recipe. Tried it tonight with the family and everyone was scooping out the spices at the end. Highly recommend.

[@yanafelani]

I made this and it was great. I used garlic powder and didn't have MSG and it was still super yum. Oh and I had kernels left unpopped.

[@georgiap8354]

I knew there was a reason I loved you so much. Popcorn is also my favorite food, and to no shame, I use 1/2 a cup of popcorn. I just like eating it with butter or cracker pepper and Parmesan cheese :) thanks for this recipe I will try it for sure!!!

[@ryanmarkel289]

Verbally, the best ep, so far. WAY out of the park. 💕

[@Jan96106]

You are so right. It was July 4 yesterday, and when I heard the fireworks, I said: it sounds like popcorn popping. I have been popping a lot of corn lately.

[@adabels3079]

I need to try this. My favorite popcorn has been over a camp fire. Sooooo good!

[@Debo6]

I love you and this video almost as much as I love popcorn.

[@Rose-jz6sx]

I agree with your friend, I use a pestle and mortar to gring my spice blend (I do nooch, garlic granules, smoked paprika, black pepper, salt) and it adheres pretty well even without oil.

[@nourishwithnaeemah222]

I love popcorn too!! My mom ate a lot of it when she was pregnant with me. It is literally my favorite snack, sometimes meal. Lol Thank you for sharing.

[@cherihall3071]

Lol I love this. Yes! Nutritional Yeast

[@candybabyeagle]

One of my favorite adds to popcorn is wasabi furikaki. And, yes, all these furikaki that falls to the bottom is the best.

[@mattsrowe]

This popcorn is a revelation and you are a joy!

[@sakenizamian3296]

Ah! I'm so glad someone else thinks that's just the right amount for one serving :) I love how much you love popcorn, Carla. I also add parmesan cheese to mine, which my family thinks is monstrous. They don't know what they're missing!!

[@pthaloblue100]

Silly family, parmesan on popcorn is delicious, at least that leaves more for you! :D

[@violethendrickson6080]

Dad always said throw a kernel in the pot and add oil 2/3 -3/4 of the way up on the kernel. Makes sense, as if we use cup measurements it would depend on the largeness of the pan, how high the oil comes up on the kernel. He also said get the oil really hot before adding the popcorn, "just as it's about to smoke". He was a farmer who raised popcorn and was the best popper around! I'm 78, and still hear him directing me as I learned to pop corn.

[@peterfarrell66]

I've been air popping daily for years but had some peanut oil left over from the holiday beignets so I did my best to copy this recipe without any measurements. It was delicious! Even my baby-mouthed family loved it. I even bought nutritional yeast for the first time ever. Didn't have Aleppo pepper but Mrs. Dash's Southwestern Chipotle mix worked fine. If anything I could go heavier on the oil and spices.

[@_FearNoEvil]

I LOVE POPCORN! WITH BUTTER, GRATED PARM, AND ROSEMARY! Or anyway, for that matter. I SUPPORT A POPCORN SERIES! Edit: I just made an adaptation of this recipe...parm cheese instead of yeast powder...didn't have any at home...I'm sitting here with one cheese-covered claw, my popcorn, and a raspberry-lime seltzer. Life is good.

[@michaelfoxbrass]

Same mode here - (no nutritional yeast) - so a wedge of Pecorino Romano is calling to be popcorned.

[@valarya]

Umm, I always knew Carla was my spirit animal. I think about Popcorn daily and make it often and I always do it on the stovetop... and I always ALWAYS make 1/2c. for myself and miiiiiiight scoop a tiny bowls worth out for my husband on occasion. lol. My go-to popcorn topping is good ol' NOOCH (nutritional yeast) I cannot wait to try this spice blend!

[@markmyworms]

Also, I heard from an old farmer neighbor to try popping popcorn in bacon grease, it's great, definitely recommend.

[@RaymondHng]

There's a place in Chinatown that sells popcorn popped in duck fat.

[@iconoclast137]

Carla, I absolutely adore you. I have one of your books, and I love all your videos from Bon Appetit. And I love making popcorn on the stove, I am so very excited to try this! You are an absolute powerhouse/goddess/culinary knowledge guru. Thank you!

Thank you so much for sharing. You are such a delight. I enjoy your zeal for popcorn and cooking in general.

[@collinlovas]

I love this! ❤ Aleppo pepper, huh? Never heard of it - gotta get some soon. Here’s a tip - if you don’t want to break out the blender, use a coffee grinder (not the burr kind - the one with a removable cup is preferred). I agree with your friend - the superfine particles are more likely to stick to the popcorn.

[@_kit.glitch]

[@idaslapter5987]

As a little kid, I went to visit my older sister away at college. We made popcorn and seasoned it with a spice blend called "Spike" (made in Mequon, Wisconsin). 45 years later, popcorn w Spike is still my absolute favorite. 😋☺
