# The Ingredients You'll Need:
→ Popcorn
01 - 1/2 cup popcorn kernels (or 6 cups plain popped popcorn)
02 - 2 tablespoons neutral oil (such as canola or sunflower), if popping kernels
→ Sweet Glaze
03 - 1/4 cup unsalted butter
04 - 1/3 cup granulated sugar
05 - 1 tablespoon light corn syrup
06 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
→ Dill-Pickle Seasoning
07 - 1 1/2 teaspoons dried dill weed
08 - 1 teaspoon dried parsley
09 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
10 - 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
11 - 1/2 teaspoon citric acid (or substitute 2 teaspoons lemon juice powder)
12 - 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
13 - 1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
# Step-by-Step Instructions:
01 - If using popcorn kernels, heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add a few kernels; when they pop, add the rest and cover. Shake occasionally until popping slows. Remove from heat and transfer 6 cups of popped popcorn to a large mixing bowl.
02 - In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Add sugar, corn syrup, and salt. Stir until the mixture is fully melted and smooth, about 2–3 minutes.
03 - In a small bowl, mix together all dill-pickle seasoning ingredients.
04 - Drizzle the sweet glaze over the warm popcorn, tossing with a spatula to coat evenly.
05 - While glaze is still sticky, sprinkle the dill-pickle seasoning over the popcorn and toss again until well distributed.
06 - Spread popcorn onto a parchment-lined baking sheet to cool for 10 minutes.
07 - Once cool, break apart any clusters and serve.
