I found a couple of recipes for Caramel Popcorn on line and they all looked good. But the one that appealed to me the most was this one from
Fare to Remember.
What appealed to me the most about this recipe was that the ingredients were very similar to my fudge/caramel recipe.
Salted Caramel Popcorn- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 cup corn syrup
- 1 14-ounce can of sweetened condensed milk
- sea salt (I used Murray River Flake Salt)
Combine all caramel ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring to melt and blend all ingredients together. Reduce heat to low and continue a slow boil; stir constantly to avoid the caramel from burning. Caramel is done when it reaches the soft ball candy stage (approximately 10 minutes at slow boil). While still hot, pour caramel over a big bowl of popcorn, mixing well to coat. Sprinkle liberally with the sea salt, again, mixing well for even coverage throughout the batch.

yum ^__^ caramel popcorn :X
Hmm, tasty. This is one of those times when the type of salt used really matters, and could turn a dish awful if the wrong salt is used (like regular table salt). I think for this one, a light Flake salt is a must-use.
i love caramel corn ...that looks good :)
Yummmmm. I love caramel popcorn :D
Lovely.
May I suggest pairing that with a caramel-malt rich Irish Red or Scotch Ale? That'd be a match made in heaven.
That looks delicious! I'd love to try this.
