Cheddar-Chive Popcorn
Amount Measurement Ingredient/Preparation Method

1 cup Popcorn (popped 12 cups)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter cut into small piece
2 teaspoons White-wine Worcestershire sauce
3 cloves garlic finely chopped
3 tablespoons dried chives
1/2 cup finely grated sharp Cheddar cheese, dried*
Salt to taste


Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Place the popcorn in a large bowl.

Put the butter, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic in a small saucepan and cook over low heat for about 3 minutes until the garlic has softened. Add the chives and stir well. Pour over the popcorn and toss.

Spread the popcorn evenly in a large jelly-roll pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, removing the pan and stirring occasionally. Remove the pan from the oven.

Toss the cheese with the popcorn, allow to cool slightly, then serve at once, adding salt to taste.

Make 12 cups.

*The cheese should be as dry as possible when added to the popcorn. Spread the grated cheese on a plate and chill it, uncovered, in the refrigerator, for several hours or overnight.
