Dry seasoned popcorn in oven
Is there a way to dry homemade seasoned popcorn ?
I used this recipe and the popcorn felt soggy. Can I dry it in the oven ? I am just afraid of the popcorn burning if I put it in the oven at 350F to dry.
Best Answer
Yes, oven drying is fine. Depending on how much liquid is on the popcorn, 15-30 minutes at 300 F should work. Mix the popcorn around a couple of times during this process.
Keep in mind that hot popcorn will seem soggier than it will be once it cools. When checking for doneness, let a piece cool for a little while before testing it.
