For Popping

Heirloom, organic popping corn — not genetically modified. I grew it in healthy, rich, alive soil instead of soil that has been mono cropped to death. I grew it with manure and compost instead of synthetic fertilizer and chemicals. I’ll let it dry on the cob and in late fall we will manually remove the kernels from the cobs with the friction of our hands and then on winter nights when we feel like a positively sinful treat, we will pop it in cast iron on the stove top in a puddle of ghee or coconut oil and season it with comasio. I’d give you details on the flavor profile of homegrown heirloom popping corn but it would only make you jealous. We can’t have that.

  2. Is that Dakota Black Corn?! That’s what’s I attempted this year…alas they’re still babies & the 2nd freeze of late summer last night well enough did them ‘em!

    Good Lord I do love cast-iron popped corn, especially with virgin coconut oil!! A regular treat when we spent our summers aboard the boat in the PNW.

  4. Popcorn is one of my weaknesses! Especially when tossed with olive oil, parmesan and pepper. Mmmmm. Can’t wait to see what these turn out like!

  5. 😍😍 I’d love to have some for those winter nights!

  6. My momma used to pop corn for us on the stove, every Sunday night when we had snacky dinner. I am sure the cast iron and heirloom corn would kick it up a notch. I just looked up comasio and well all I can say is I am about to try something new.
