Tips for Perfect Popcorn

• Oil-Popped Popcorn: For the best flavor, make your popcorn on the stovetop using coconut or avocado oil. The fat helps the seasoning stick to the popcorn for even distribution.
• Butter It Up: Add a drizzle of melted butter before sprinkling on the seasoning to enhance the flavor and help the spices adhere.
• Adjust the Heat: Not a fan of too much spice? Dial down the cayenne pepper to 1/2 tsp for a milder kick.
