Bacon Fat Popcorn

Crudo

Ready to graduate from unsalted butter? Then try making popcorn with bacon fat for an extra-indulgent snack. A touch of truffle oil lends a subtle earthy aroma to the popcorn, and shaved Parmesan and chives are a great finishing touch.

INGREDIENTS

1/3 cup bacon fat
1/2 cup white popcorn kernels
1/4 cup shaved Parmesan, for garnish
1/4 cup diced chives, for garnish
Dash of truffle oil

DIRECTIONS

Combine the bacon fat and kernels in a pot, cover, and cook over medium-high heat. Once popping begins, tilt the lid slightly to let some steam out and give the pot a shake. Once the popping steadies and slows down remove from the heat. Pour into a serving bowl and garnish with shaved Parmesan and diced chives and drizzle with truffle oil.
