Helpful Tips
- I used butter flavored popcorn for this recipe. If you are using original or plain popcorn, try increasing the melted butter to 1/2 a cup to really enhance the flavor.
- I like to measure with my heart most of the time. I added more dried dill to the top of my popcorn for even more tangy flavor! Don’t be afraid to tweak the spice measurements to your taste.
- You can also use a large paper bag to toss all the ingredients together!
- Dill pickle popcorn is best served immediately. Make sure to store any leftovers in an airtight container to prevent the popcorn from becoming stale.
