If you wanted to make shelf stable snacks that didn't cost a lot but delivered on umami what would you make?
My first thought was corn nuts or baked chickpeas. A low cost main ingredient and a minimal amount of home grown herbs and MSG as a seasoning would do the job.
What else can you come up with other than beef jerky?
Picture for the algorithm.
Popcorn kernels last a good while (old ones can be freshened up with a small amount of water the day before you pop them). Paired with nutritional yeast and sriracha powder it's a flavour bomb. Also you can buy real cheese powder, it needn't be the fake stuff.
We bought a mini popcorn machine just like the theatres and it had been brilliant. Highly suggest it if you have the room.
Put kernels, salt, oil in, turn on, fresh popcorn comes out 3 minutes later.
If you want to get fancy use pop's kettle corn and it really does taste like real kettle corn.
Ah, I guess I'm rustic. I just do it in a big 7 litre stock pot with a mesh screen across the top. Steam escapes, and I can make enough for the whole family in one go. Takes about twice as long, but I don't mind. I add a little turmeric powder to my oil to get that movie popcorn uneven dye effect.
I mean you can do that as well. Or a whirlie pop. Or a microwave bowl. Or bag over a fire.
I like mine because I don't have to sit over a stove for 5 minutes and crank.
My machine makes 1 cup kernels which is 32 cups popped.
Flavacol is great. So are the Amish popcorn seasonings like ballpark.
When my wife moved in she made me watch every episode of Little House on the prairie. On DVD. During that, we started making a lot of popcorn. Because if you're not eating popcorn while watching Little House on the prairie, you're probably doing something wrong. It's been 15 years and we still stock popcorn in the house.
We don't keep nutritional yeast in the house.
Ducks need extra niacin when you're raising them. Failure to do that will result in angel wing. Which is not a good thing. A lot of people will supplement their food with nutritional yeast. We don't do that. We give them frozen peas instead.
Now I'm wondering what it would be like to add some frozen peas to the popcorn pot.
The only Sriracha in the house is homemade so I don't have any powder. And my 10 tray dehydrator busted itself a year and a half ago. I don't have the $100 to buy a new one. But if I did, I could totally dehydrate some Sriracha and then run it through a grinder to powder it. So you have some good ideas here.
Ah yeah no I wasn't thinking of having you reduce your sriracha sauce - that's a heavy lift just for popcorn that tastes like Takis. In Asian grocers in the UK (meaning India-centric), in the spice aisle they sell a ready made powder that mimics the sauce pretty well, and it sticks to hot popcorn. I had to look up the brand, I think it's Greenfields.
I don't think a dried pea would pop like corn does, but it would be tasty if it did.
