The procedure of making the best teppanyaki popcorn
None of the notes I've provided so far in this article makes sense compared to what I'm going to give.
The process of making the best Teppanyaki popcorn is very complicated, and to master it, it must take a lot of practice. The final product is delicious and worth it.
You can watch this reference video to learn how to make caramel popcorn and continue reading to follow specific steps:
As mentioned earlier, the core components are simple and the tools required are simple. Your first step is to clean the Teppanyaki grill. You may not think this is necessary, but you will be wrong.
Popcorn has the flavor you add to it
Popcorn is very sensitive to external flavor in essence. Suppose you use an Teppanyaki grill to make steak, and then continue to make Teppanyaki popcorn if it's not clean.
Even if you nail the whole process, you'll end up with popcorn like beef! Some people may think it's not bad, but when I say that, believe me: it's absolutely disgusting.
Therefore, it is strongly recommended that you clean with warm water before starting.
Pour oil on the Teppanyaki grill
The next step is to pour the oil. Let me remind you that you are pouring oil so that popcorn kernels can be stirred in the grill instead of being fried.
It's crucial to remember that too much oil can prove disastrous. Compared to popcorn kernels, a small amount is OK!
In addition, be sure to drain the oil first and make it hot. Then continue to add the popcorn kernel.
Add corn kernel
Be careful when adding popcorn kernels. First of all, you don't want to spread hot oil. Second, you want to put all the benevolence together to ensure even cooking!
I suggest you put on the barbecue gloves now (I bought them from Amazon), because from this point on, you will be very close to the burning Teppanyaki grill.
Keep the kernel moving
Traditional popcorn kernels need little attention when cooking, and the end point can be easily determined by the frequency of popping sound.
However, for Teppanyaki popcorn, two barbecue scrapers must be used to stir the kernels continuously. You can find more information about Teppanyaki tools in my purchase guide.
This is mainly to ensure that all grains are exposed to the same amount of heat and to avoid burning popcorn.
If butter or caramel is to be added - a grill scraper should be used to ensure that corn grains are constantly immersed when cooked on the grill.
How long will you cook popcorn on Teppanyaki?
You may want to know how long this "mixing" process should last - the answer to this question depends entirely on it. It depends on many factors, such as grill temperature, kernel size, oil quality and so on.
It must be noted that when the corn is almost ready to be popped, the mixing must be stopped. Make sure they don't pop up when you stir, although this rarely happens.
After mixing, you must arrange the hot grains in such a way that they can be covered with a perforated steel bowl. By providing the necessary pressure, this will become the regular popcorn popcorn.
In fact, I didn't add it to my buying guide because it's only for popcorn recipes, but you can get any of these bowls.
The rest is very simple - all you have to do is judge the end point according to the frequency of the popping sound of the nuts, and then you will get a bowl of delicious popcorn on the Teppanyaki.
