I do not have an recipe for kettle corn. I have bought and used Ma's Kettke Corn popcorn seasoning from www.GreatNorthernPopcorn.com and it does a fair job on kettle corn taste when I used it. I may not have put enough on the corn to make it taste like real kettle corn. You can try it and experiment for you taste. Bob

I just made kettle corn with my Great Northern popper last week using the following recipe and it turned out fantastic; without the burning that many people complain about. 2 Tablespoons regular olive oil or vegetable oil, 1 Tablespoon unsalted butter, 1/2 cup corn kernels, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/3 cup sugar. Heat the oil, butter, salt and sugar over medium heat till hot then add the corn. When the kernels start to pop start turning the handle and continue until the popping stops. Pour into a large bowl and break up any large clumps. Be careful because the corn will remain very hot because of the sugar. Enjoy!

1/4c oil + 1/2c corn, at first pop add 1/4c sugar, pop and dump, salt and serve. It's that simple!

I do not have a recipe for kettle corn. I have bought and used it yesterday, Ma's Kettle Corn popcorn seasoning from www.GreatNorthernPopcorn.com. I may not have put enough on the corn to give it a great kettle corn taste but it came out pretty good. You can try it and experiment for your taste.Bob

We think it tastes even better! We use coconut oil, flavacol seasoning and a high quality corn such as Orville Redenbacher. It's nice being able to adjust the amounts to your own individual tastes. Highly recommend this pop corn machine!!

We use vegetable oil and lightly salt only.. You could add melted butter or margarine if you wish after popping. Works great and popcorn tastes great.

It would not be a good idea to shake the pot while it is on the stove top. Cast iron holds it's heat longer, so remove the corn from the pot quickly to keep from burning the popcorn. Any sauce pan with lid works, maybe an aluminum pot that heats and cools quickly would work the best on a flat topped electric stove for popping corn.

I do not care for this popper the pop corn is tough and will burn. I have quit using it and instead use the microwave -- use a pyrex bowl with a microwave proof plate on top and cook for 2.5 minutes popcorn much better and no oil.

I haven't tried that. I really like the Stir Crazy popper! It has made the best popcorn. Then you can add 1/4 cup of Sugar to make Kettle Corn.

You can use any kind that you want but I would suggest you use coconut oil for your popping oil. It gives the corn a better taste remember a little goes a long way also a little bit of popcorn goes a long way. 1 cup will treat 2 people with no problem.

We bought the Orville Redenbaugher oil and kernels to use with the machine and we used the recipe provided with the oil and kernels. Also provided with the oil and kernels was an easy method for stove top popping. This turned out to be much more effective, easy, and quick, so we no longer use the popcorn maker. Maybe for an event in the future we may pull it out, but it was quite a bit of work just for some popcorn.

Hi there! I used the Orville Redenbocker oil(think I spelled that right) that has the butter already in it...and measure 2 tbsp and let it warm up for about 30-45 seconds in the popper then add whatever popcorn you want to use. Everyone has a certain popcorn they buy. You will LUV this popcorn maker! My family does. Hope this helped. :-D

We like it better. We use Great Northern Popcorn portion packs. It is a tri-pack product that comes with the right amounts of oil, popcorn and salt for our 6 oz machine. Just pour it all in the kettle and wait for it to pop, Super easy and it makes a lot. We love our machine and it has been a big hit with all our guest.

I have never tried it on air popped corn. It is very fine almost like a powder so it may work. I use this on kettle corn & it's perfect & will continue to use it instead of morton salt or anything else. Just a light salt. Good luck!

I just use regular yellow or white corn. I find it works best if you use the butter container to measure the corn ( it will make a big batch). Also, if you use a smaller kernel or less corn it helps to tilt the popper back so the kernels don't fly out the chute.

I just used mine for the first time and got a full bowl of perfectly popped corn in 3 minutes. I used Walmart's GV popcorn with 2 Tbsp of Canola oil.

i do not know about the nuts, but we have often successfully made delicious kettle corn in it...I use coconut oil and organic sugar and organic popcorn. I cannot recall the exact recipe but there are several online...just experiment!

No ,but it's made for 6 oz pop corn. For example; If you use 8 oz pop corn bag you will have un-popped kernels. so the kettle is made for 6 oz bags. I hope I answered your question.
