Worked at a movie theatre for 10 years. The “secret ingredient” is Flavacol. It’s a butter flavored salt you add during the cooking process. Otherwise it’s just popcorn and coconut oil

XeroCool

Its the coconut oil that gives the popcorn its theater crunch. Flavacol is actually just a flavor additive that doesn't even need to be added

A word of caution when making caramel, especially with baking soda:

Molten sugar hurts. It sticks to you and burns, and you can't just wash it off, it cools onto your skin. Be VERY careful when making caramel.

In my experience, boiling some butter with some garlic powder in the microwave gets rid of most of the water, and makes for a a good topping without making soggy popcorn. The garlic powder keeps the butter from splattering all over the microwave oven and of course, does flavour the butter. :)
A mortar and pestle works well for grinding the salt, too.
Going to have to test clarified butter for actually popping the popcorn. I've just been using vegetable oil like some chump

Tip: The "butter" in the butter dispensers is butter-flavored canola oil.I worked at a movie theater full-time, and I NEVER got tired of movie theater popcorn! I used to make a special batch just for myself, with extra butter-flavored salt. That yellow, powdery butter-flavored salt we would sprinkle on the popcorn kernels was AWESOME!

Garlic bread popcorn is one of those things I never knew I needed in my life, in my mouth, and in my stomach until just now.

G4L

2y↑15

One thing I do to make it even better is to use a grease splatter guard as the lid after the kernels start to pop. Note that at the movie theaters, the lid to the popcorn opens as the kernels start to come out. This releases the steam and makes for a more crunchy popcorn that lasts for days. Not as important, I add some coconut oil to what I pour over the kernels because I like the flavor and it seems to cause the ghee to coat the kernels instead of being absorbed into them (making them soggy). Without question, what you did in the video is spot on!

Deborah H. Marks

I wondered about the ghee. I've always found that most of the intense butter flavor seems to be in the milk solids that get strained out. Is that not the case? Can the water be evaporated without losing the milk solids?

RyanKaufman

If you're at the theater, I recommend asking for a second container (works better if you have another person with you to share it as it won't look silly). Split the two 50/50. Then douse both buckets in butter and SALT. The extra space to really shake them up allows you to really coat those underneath drybois. No more sad popcorn at the movies.

Using this method and others, the salt can really sneak up on you really fast. Remember, if it tastes ”just right” at the beginning, it’s probably a little too much… You have to get through the entire portion without getting burned out on the salt. I think it’s always better to err on the side of caution… You can always add more salt later but you can’t ever remove it.

I just tried movie theatre popcorn again after not having it for 2 years due to the pandemic. There is no comparison that the theatre version is better, and I have a popcorn machine, Flavacol, and the right kind of oil at home. The difference is the kernel itself. No matter what brand I purchase, the kernels have a husk that is tough and chewy. Orville is notorious for this, while the cheap no name brand was actually much better. But the movie theatre version had ZERO HUSK. Every kernel crunches beautifully with no toughness whatsoever. I'm convinced that it's the brand of kernel they use, since I noticed a difference between Orville and no-name.

If you don't like the hulls, use white popcorn ...it is so much better. My favorite white popcorn cooked with ghee. Yummy.

Small suggestion for everyone making the garlic version: either roast your garlic cloves for about fifteen minutes first, or fry your chopped garlic, this will mellow that oniony garlic taste and make it actually taste like the good cooked garlic taste on garlic bread. It's also a little easier on the guts that way for those who get indigestion from raw garlic, and your fingers won't smell like raw garlic for days after you eat the popcorn with your hands.

For those that dont want to go through the effort, just microwave a bag of popcorn (your choice but I'd go with a triple butter) and let it sit at room temperature for 5 minutes. The temperature will be down (but popcorn isn't that hot anyway so thats not a problem) and it'll have that same flavour you love. I used to have it as a school snack. Cook popcorn morning of or night before and come lunch time it tasted amazing.

Clarified butter and ghee are a little different. Both are made the same way but ghee is boiled for longer so that the milk solids on the bottom get caramelized which gives a nutty flavor to the butter.

I found a tip on the internet last year (can't remember where) for popping popcorn which made my popcorn so much better. When you go to heat your oil or butter, put 3 kernels in with it. When they pop, the oil is the right temperature to add the rest of the kernels. They start popping pretty quickly when they go in at the right temperature, and most of the kernels pop without burning any.

I really like your recipe for the caramel popcorn. The thinner syrup must be so much more convenient to pour over the corn than the already hard-crack stuff. Then it reaches that temperature in the oven. Very smart.
Clean the syrup pot by soaking it in some water for some time. The syrup dissolves in the water, and is no problem to clean.

Sub the powdered salt for Flavacol. It's powdered salt with a few other things, and butter seasoning, and it just... Absolutely elevates the whole thing.

Canonically this also fits into the ‘But Cheaper’ series by an incredible margin.

depends. I did the margisn and if you buy from stop and shop, you only save a decent amount compared to bagged popcorn. And that's if you make the reccomended serving. Need to hit a big box store or online to get kernals on the cheap. Miss when family dollar had kernals for $1.

There’s no way you are making better popcorn than theatre popcorn! That’s for damn sure

I've been a bag popped popcorn guy my whole life. Decided to follow your first recipe, and my life is forever changed. It's so easy to make, and probably the best popcorn I've had. I didn't know popcorn could be so crunchy and so buttery at the same time (plus, the spooky salt powder is great as well, even if it made a spooky salt cloud in my kitchen).

Welcome to the club! After half a bag of MW popcorn you think what is this coating in my mouth and the rest of the bag is just so so.

If you don't wanna cover your kitchen in salt dust, mortar and pestle works wonders in turning salt into a powder

Get a Whirley Pop pop corn maker like I did, crunchy and buttery with no fuss no muss. Olive oil, butter and just table salt in the Whirley pop and a few minutes its done! Could not be easier and its the manual crank version of the classic theater popcorn machine.

I've been making popcorn better than the Theater for a long time now. Start with a high-quality popcorn, for this I use Amish Country popcorn. It's hands down the best popcorn I have tasted. Also, make sure to buy their cooking oil, some flavacol and some butter topping. I like to use Kernel Season's theater popcorn butter. Add your cooking oil into a whirly pop, 1/2 cup popcorn, 5ml of flavacol and pop. Once done put as much theater butter as your heart desires.

My favorite way to make popcorn is with a stir cra-z. It essentially does the shaking over the stove for you and has a built in bowl right there for ya

If you want the best possible flavor from your corn I suggest slowly bringing the corn up to a low medium heat and let it roast in the butter for 20 min until the kernels look golden brown, then raise the temp a bit until popping begins. Trust me 10 X corn flavor.

Movie theaters use coconut oil and it's widely considered the best tasting. They also use Flavacol, which you can buy on Amazon if you want. It's a buttered flavored salt that I believe is proprietary.

I'm glad I found this! Recently I've been using Irish butter but it costs quite a bit.

Making your own ghee is so much better. Also you can add flavours: like onion, garlic, tumuric, black kardemom, ...anything you like. Simmer and sift.

@Peace Frog here in India most people don't do that to the ghee as a whole because it's also used to make sweets. It's probably better to flavour small portions of the ghee, just the right amount of ghee for each dish you make. that can be done to unflavoured store bought ghee too.

Unless you're cooking some Indian food.. in which case, get the buffalo + cow ghee for authentic flavor! Plus it's cheaper at the Indian grocers... $10 for a giant can vs. $4 for a pound of mediocre quality butter that nets a much smaller amount.

At the movie theatre in my town. they buy corn cornels from the local supermarket, put the in a machine which cooks it and keeps it warm while waiting for people to order it, then they put a lot of seasonings into the popcorn and it tastes amazing and not like what you would get from a supermarket in packets.

Andrew Liang

I worked at a movie theater before, and I will say, at the movie theater, they use a seasoning called flavacol, which is similar to salt. If you want low effort movie theater popcorn, just add some flavacol to your popcon

You can buy jugs of that artificial "butter" from Amazon. It tastes exactly like what you get at the theater and don't have to waste time working with the butter. It works great on microwave popcorn, too. I pour the "butter" into the popcorn bag and shake it. When I pour it into the bowl, all of it is buttery.
