When does the butter/margarine come into the recipe?

yum! my past attempts at crock pot oatmeal have been disastrous…perhaps because I used rolled oats. all ingredients are in the pot and ready to turn on at midnight for shabbat morning breakfast. i’ll keep you posted

First make the Monkey Bread (Fast and Furious Friday Post, January 6th, 2012), then the Latte. Pluck off bits of Monkey Bread and dunk them in the Latte. You’ll thank me.

I’m sorry, forgot to mention – if you’re speaking of flavor add ins in general (eg, butter, cheese, garlic powder, powdered ranch dressing, etc.) put those on immediately after, while the popcorn is still hot. If the topping is especially gloppy, you can put the popcorn on a baking sheet, top with flavoring, and heat in a 100 – 200 degree oven for a half hour, tossing it every 10 minutes or so. Just don’t ever pop with dairy (unless it’s ghee)…it usually burns.

You can absolutely do it on the stove top. My suggestions are: 1) use a heavy pot/pan, and 2) shake, shake, shake! But, you’re right, just put everything into the pot (except for the salt) so that the sugar caramelizes. In Japan, they would sprinkle the sugar on afterwards, but that’s a whole different flavor entirely (I much prefer American style kettle corn).

To make this on the stove top, would you just put the flavor add-ins in the pot with the popcorn and oil (as opposed to adding them after the popping)?

I think puff pastry will be fine.

Is it available at most grocery stores, kosher markets or a Whole Foods type of store? Thank you for your post.
