Manchego Truffled Popcorn
Servings: about 12 cups
3 Tablespoons vegetable oil
½ cup popping corn
3 Tablespoons Truffle oil, divided
Kosher salt to taste
3 ounces Manchego cheese, grated and divided
1. Pour the vegetable oil and corn into a heavy bottom 4-quart pot and cover. Shake pot to coat the corn with oil, and spread in a single layer.
2. Place on medium heat until the corn begins to pop. Occasionally shake the pot until the popping slows, about 3 minutes. Remove pot from heat.
3. Pour 1/3 of the popped corn into an extra-large bowl. Drizzle with 1 Tablespoon of Truffle oil. Season to taste with kosher salt and spread 1/3 of the Manchego cheese on the popcorn in the bowl. Repeat the layers two more times with the remaining ingredients. Serve immediately.
