Its time to set the record straight. There really is no such thing as hulless popcorn. The hull of the kernel is the seed, so naturally, all popcorn has a hull. Also, popcorn is held together by the hull. A kernel becomes the fluffy popcorn we know and love by exploding (hence "pop"corn) and turning inside out. The dark piece of popcorn, deep inside the popcorn, is the hull! Show The leading complaint of popcorn consumers is the kernel gets stuck in their teeth. So, the next logical step is to get hulless popcorn, when in reality, hulless popcorn is just popcorn made from a smaller kernel that still contains a hull. The hull of the kernel is the seed, and popcorn cannot exist without a seed. However, smaller hulled popcorn, when popped, is smaller, tenderer and less noticeable. When it pops, the hull breaks up into smaller pieces and does not get noticed in your teeth. In addition, a study done by scientists at the University of Scranton found that the hull of popcorn is packed with disease-fighting antioxidants. These antioxidants are known as polyphenols, which help prevent damage to cells in your body. So the next time you want a healthy snack, don't be so quick to pass up the popcorn. Add it to your daily fruits and vegetables, and you will have yourself a snack packed full of disease-fighting antioxidants! However, you may be contradicting those antioxidants by smothering your popcorn in butter, salt and cheese. Finally… a breakdown of the pros and cons of hulless popcorn: The pros of "hulless" popcorn: safer for people with braces and may be easier to digest for some people. The cons of "hulless" popcorn: a smaller variety is available for consumers and is slightly more expensive than regular-sized hulls.  I posted my caramel corn recipe on Facebook yesterday (click here to get it if you’d like) and realized that I’d never posted my Butter Caramel Puff Corn recipe on here! Oh mercy, where has my head been? This stuff is absolutely divine, with a capital “D”. It has a delicious honey taste to it (regardless of which ingredient options you use) and none of the pesky hulls or kernels you encounter with traditional caramel corn. Also, since you buy the puff corn in a bag, there is no popping popcorn in preparation for making it. Just walk into your kitchen, put some stuff in a pot, pour the puff corn in a baking dish and proceed as directed! Personally, I like this better than caramel corn because it is easier on your teeth. Oh but Christy, have we really got to the age where we have to worry about whether or not something is hard on our teeth? I don’t know about you but I sure have! Warning: make this early in the day because you may end up eating it all yourself and if you do, you’ll need plenty of time to hide the evidence that you made it and didn’t share. Recipe Ingredients:Corn Syrup or Honey Light Brown Sugar (the world won’t end if you use dark though) Butter A wee bit of Baking Soda. and Puff corn… This isn’t popcorn. There are no hulls or anything and it is baked. It sure is good! What Kind of Puff Corn Do I Get?Sometimes puff corn can be hard to find, though. My Wal Mart carries the cheese flavored kind but not the butter flavored kind you need for this recipe. I got these are Krogers for $2 a bag. Each bag is 3.5 ounces, so you end up with 10.5 ounces, which is what you need for a single recipe of Caramel Puff Corn. However, Mama’s Foodland carries bags twice this size for the same price so maybe you’ll get lucky and find the bigger, cheaper bags. They’re all good. Check online at our grocer too. By the way, if you’ve never looked for this before, it is usually near the cheetos and such.
See? Oven baked, no hulls, no kernels. Easy on your teeth 🙂 Place brown sugar, butter, and honey or corn syrup in a medium sauce pot. Stir constantly while bringing to a boil over medium high heat. Once boiling, allow to boil for one minute.
Remove from heat and stir in baking soda. This will get it kind of foamy. Stir until it’s all dissolved in there, which will just take a minute. Spray a large roasting pan or two 9×13 baking dishes with cooking spray. Divide puff corn among the two dishes. Pour topping evenly over all of the puff corn. Stir really well until it is well coated. Place in 250 degree oven and bake for 45 minutes, stirring really well every 15 minutes. Allow to cool and store in an airtight container. Butter Caramel Puff Corn has a delicious honey taste to it and none of the pesky hulls or kernels you encounter with traditional caramel corn.
