Using an air popper, pop up fresh popcorn in 1\/4 C. increments. OR, follow the manufacturer&#8217;s instructions for your air popper.\u00c2\u00a0 As the popper is popping, slowly melt the butter and coconut oil on the stove top. Once the popcorn is popped, add melted fats a few T. at a time to the popcorn bowl as you sprinkle with sea salt and stir gently. Repeat this process, adding fat, salt and stirring until all the melted fats are gone. Allow to cool completely. Gently toss in fresh edible flowers or sugared violets.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Calendula<\/p>\n<p>Cornflowers<\/p>\n<p>Cosmos<\/p>\n<p>Dianthus<\/p>\n<p>Field Daisies<\/p>\n<p>Johnny jumps-ups (violas)<\/p>\n<p>Pansies<\/p>\n<p>Pineapple Sage Blossoms<\/p>\n<p>Red Bud blossoms<\/p>\n<p>Rose Petals<\/p>\n<p>Sweet William<\/p>\n<p>Violets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wildflower Violet Popcorn 1 C.
