RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

Not quite discovered but I recently started making popcorn at home and it's so good!! Before I only ever had popcorn at the cinema (where I don't go often anyway), but as it turns out buying corn kernels and making it myself makes for a cheap and tasty snack. Less recently, I tried eel sushi and really liked it!! Shame I only know of one restaurant that does it though

Just a few seconds before the kernels start popping, one adds one spoon of butter and it is the tastiest thing.

Unfortunately I don't like butter, but I'll keep that in mind for my brother who does like it!

Any other popcorn tricks?

[–] Krudler@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

Couple teaspoons of icing sugar or crush some cane sugar into powder with a mortar and pestle.

You can make it "totally next level" for maybe 30 extra calories

Mix the butter with sirarcha and drizzle after popping!
