Caramel Corn

It was an interesting holiday.  I am always a bit frantic getting ready for it.  I do say I have to enjoy it but this year being anemic really did not help!  I did finally get to my Beloved's request for caramel corn.  It sounded yummy to me as well.  I use Molly's recipe for Orangette:

We do not have a microwave so I pop my popcorn on top of the stove.  I add a pinch of salt to this large bowl of popcorn.

The one tool that makes all the difference for this is a good candy thermometer.  They are not very expensive but priceless.

I leave out the peanuts.  I do not particularly care for them in any caramel corn I ever tried so I just ditched them.  

This is so yummy that it gets eaten much too fast!  I have not made it more recently for my Beloved because it does get into our tummies much too quickly.  

Enjoy!
