Popping Popcorn!

Anne

Popcorn is a specific variety of corn and is the only grain that “pops.” The reason has to do with the outer covering, and with the specific amount of moisture that is inside each kernel. When heated, popcorn kernels literally explode from the inside out!

Here’s a List of Popcorn Varieties: Japanese Hulless Heirloom Popcorn, Lady Finger Heirloom Popcorn, South American Yellow Heirloom Popcorn, Strawberry Heirloom Popcorn, Little Indian Heirloom Popcorn, Dakota Black Heirloom Popcorn, Pennsylvania Butter-Flavored Heirloom Popcorn, Wisconsin Black Heirloom Popcorn, Cherokee Long Ear Small Heirloom Popcorn, and Baby Rice Heirloom Popcorn.
