Written by Boston Organics | Feb 8, 2010 12:00:26 PM

We have limited quantities of add-on organic popcorn kernels from the Merck Forest and Farmland Center in Rupert, VT! You can find them in Snacks and Specialties portion of the add-on order form. The kernels are from two different varieties. One is a yellow Robust variety that is know for its great eating quality - crisp and tender, light and flaky... And a white variety known as the Pennsylvania Dutch Butter Flavored. The Pennsylvania Dutch Butter Flavored is a pre-1885 heirloom variety that originated in Pennsylvania Dutch country.

If you order some kernels, here's a simple way to make popcorn for 2-4 people:

1) Add a small amount of oil to a pan and add 1/4 - 1/3 of a cup of kernels.
2) With the lid on, shake the pan over the stovetop on medium heat and continue as the kernels pop.
3) Remove from heat when popping has slowed to a few seconds between pops and serve with butter, salt, etc.
