Zubereitung von Microwave Caramel Popcorn
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine 1/2 cup popcorn kernels, 1/4 cup water, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Microwave on high for 3-5 minutes, or until popping slows significantly. Shake the bowl every minute to ensure even cooking.
- In a separate microwave-safe bowl, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup butter, 1/4 cup light corn syrup, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Continue to microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the mixture comes to a rolling boil and turns a light amber color. (Be careful, it will be very hot!)
- Carefully pour the caramel sauce over the popped popcorn, stirring gently to coat all the kernels.
- Spread the popcorn onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to cool and prevent sticking.
- Once cooled, break apart any large clumps and enjoy your delicious homemade Microwave Caramel Popcorn!
