1
In a Ziplock Bag, heat your garlic butter and ingredients listed in that section.
-
2
Leave bag unzipped and watch bag very closely while in the microwave.
-
3
The bag WILL melt.
-
4
Just heat butter enough to melt it.
-
5
Once melted, zip up bag, lightly massage butter and let sit on the counter for a few minutes to allow the garlic to infuse into the butter.
-
6
Heat the oil and garlic powder on high heat in a large pot with lid.
-
7
Add raw corn kernels, mix and place lid on top.
-
8
Cook / shake vigorously for 1 minute +.
-
9
Or, until all kernels are fully popped but, not burnt.
-
10
If using microwavable bags, cook to manufactures specifications.
-
11
But, watch, listen and smell closely.
-
12
Microwavable popcorn burns VERY easily.
-
13
Massage garlic butter bag again and snip a [very slight] opening in the corner of the bag.
-
14
Just big enough that any minced garlic can freely exit it and the butter sauce only drizzles.
-
15
Evenly drizzle garlic butter over popcorn and sprinkle powdered parmesean cheese over the damp surfaces.
-
16
You don't want your popcorn saturated.
-
17
Just lightly coated.
-
18
I use a high quality, lightly powdered Parmesan from our local pizzeria.
-
19
Salt with a fine popcorn salt [like McDonald's salt] if desired as well.
-
20
Mix up popcorn.
-
21
Repeat again, then, as you desire.
-
22
Unless you own a very fine cheese grader - like Olive Garden uses -don't use fresh grated parmesean.
-
23
It'll only fall to the bottom of your bowl and you won't taste it at all.
-
24
Sprinkled Rosemary goes well with this recipe as well.

Enjoy!
