To top air-popped popcorn, you generally add toppings after the popcorn has finished popping.
Here's a breakdown:
-
After Popping: The video mentions placing the "Cho back on top". While it's not entirely clear, the key takeaway is that you apply toppings after the air-popping process is complete.
-
Common Toppings: While not explicitly mentioned in the provided transcript, typical toppings for popcorn include:
- Butter or olive oil
- Salt (various types like sea salt, flavored salts)
- Nutritional yeast (for a cheesy flavor)
- Spices (garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, etc.)
- Parmesan cheese
- Caramel
- Chocolate

Application:
- Oil/Butter: Lightly drizzle melted butter or olive oil over the popcorn to help other toppings adhere.
- Dry Toppings: Sprinkle dry toppings evenly over the popcorn. You may want to toss the popcorn to distribute the toppings thoroughly.
