For best results, use a high-quality Parmigiano-Reggiano. Pre-grated cheese often contains cellulose and won't melt as nicely. Don't overcrowd the pot with popcorn. Popping in batches ensures even cooking and prevents burning. Adjust the amount of Italian seasoning and garlic salt to your preference. For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes. Store leftover popcorn in an airtight container to maintain its crispness, though it's best enjoyed fresh!

Jan 31, 2025Easy to follow and the result was amazing. The only thing I changed was using nutritional yeast instead of parmesan to make it vegan.
