This recipe made its debut in our household my mistake. I had just made a pot of popcorn and was reaching high and far within my cupboard to get the salt, when the bottle of turmeric fell over and landed in my freshly, perfectly popped pot of popcorn.
I continued to find the salt and added it with a bit of coconut oil, instead of butter, and what came out was absolutely delicious!
We love snacking on this for our movie nights, and usually make this version along with the “usual” version with a bit of butter, sprinkled with sea salt.
Give this one a try. You may be converted!
