Spread the kernels into a single layer and apply over medium heat. Popping will take 5-10 minutes depending on the pot. Remove the heat as soon as the popping kernels slow (about 2-3 seconds between pops). If you are using a cast iron pot, be careful to not overheat as this will scorch the popped corn. Combined seasoning: Combine the cheddar cheese seasoning, ancho chili powder, smoked Spanish paprika, granulated garlic, black pepper, salt, and cayenne pepper in a small mixing bowl and mix thoroughly. As soon as the corn is finished popping, sprinkle the combined seasoning onto the popcorn a little at a time, tossing after each application to ensure a good distribution of the seasoning. Separate seasoning: Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil over the popcorn about 1 tsp. at a time and then toss after each application to ensure an even coating of the spices and olive oil. Finally, sprinkle the thyme leaves onto the popcorn and toss once more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1 C. popcorn kernels 6 tsp. vegetable oil with a high smoke point (light olive oil is perfect) 3 tsp.
