Popcorn Maker for Black and White Popcorn
For this recipe, it’s best to pop your own popcorn so that you don’t have to compete with other flavors. Microwave popcorn has oils and flavors that will change the taste if you use it. I recommend an air popper. The one that I use is small and fits nicely on the counter. When I’m not using it, I store it in the kitchen cabinet. Want to see it in action? I used it to make the black and white popcorn in this video on Instagram.
