Truvia Natural Sweetener Sweet And Salty Kettle Corn Recipes

SUGAR-FREE KETTLE CORN

Steps:

• Put oil in large pan (or stirring style popper) with 3-4 kernels. Cover with a lid.
• Shake the pan back and forth a few times (or stir the popcorn with the popper's crank handle) to combine.
• When the first kernel pops, put the rest of the ingredients (sweetener and salt and the remainder of the popcorn) in the pan / popper.
• Shake the pan (or turn the crank handle) continuously until the popping stops.
• Put the popcorn in large (non plastic) bowl and let cool.
• In the unlikely event that there is leftover kettle corn, store in an airtight container.

SWEET AND SALTY KETTLE CORN (RACHAEL RAY)

Steps:

• In a large pot with a tight-fitting lid, heat the oil over medium-high heat.
• Add the popcorn.
• When the oil sizzles, sprinkle the sugar over the kernels.
• Cover and shake the pan until the popping slows down, about 3 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and toss with the salt.

SWEET AND SALTY POTATOES

Steps:

• 1. Peel the shallots, and chop them into pieces roughly 1/2 inch square. Place the pieces into a large non-reactive bowl.
• 2. Wash the pototoes thoroughly, but do not peel. If you are using small potatoes, cut them into quarters, each in a half-moon shape. If you are using larger potatoes, cut them into quarters, then cut those half-moons in half--the aim is to end up with uniform sized potato pieces that are one-half to no more than 3/4 of an inch on any side. Place the potato pieces into the bowl with the shallots.
• 3. Pour the balsamic vinegar and the olive oil over the potatoes and shallots. Stir to mix.
• 4. Remove the rosemary leaves from the stems. Add the leaves to the bowl with the previous ingredients.
• 5. Add the salt and the pepper to the bowl and stir again to mix.
• 6. Pour the contents of the bowl into a heavy 9 inch by 13 inch roasting pan (I like to line mine with aluminum foil), or into any baking dish that will allow the potatoes to be in a single layer.
• 7.Bake at 450 degrees F for 35 to 45 minutes. I like my potatoes pretty dark, so that the balsamic vinegar gets really crunchy on the outsides of the potatoes -if you don?t want them quite so dark, either take them out earlier at the 30 minute mark, or set the oven to 375 degrees F and roast for the full time.
• Serve hot or at room temperature. The potatoes can be reheated in the oven (400 degrees F for 10 minutes) or in a wrapping of heavy duty aluminum foil.

TRUVIA® NATURAL SWEETENER SWEET AND SPICY COCKTAIL NUTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F. Spray or lightly grease a baking sheet with sides.
• Whisk together Truvia® natural sweetener, spices and salt and set aside. Whip the egg white and water until foamy and holds a soft peak, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the nuts and toss to coat completely in whipped egg white. Add the spice mixture and toss to coat completely.
• Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and spread out into an even layer. Bake 1 hour, until nuts are toasty and crisp, stirring every 15 minutes. Cool completely. Serve at room temperature.

HOT N SWEET KETTLE CORN

Steps:

• Place popcorn, sugar, oil, chipotle and salt in a large kettle or pot with a tight fitting lid over medium heat. When corn begins to pop, shake the pot constantly. When popping slows, remove from heat and transfer popped kettle corn to a bowl.
• To keep the kettle corn sweet, omit the chipotle powder and adjust sugar to 1/3 cup.

TRUVIA® NATURAL SWEETENER CINNAMON PALMIERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. line two baking pans with parchment paper.
• Combine Truvia® natural sweetener and cinnamon in a small bowl. on a lightly floured surface, roll out the pastry dough into a large rectangle, about 15 by 12 inches. use a pastry brush to spread the butter all over the pastry.
• Sprinkle the cinnamon mixture evenly over the pastry. roll the pastry inward from the outsides of the two long ends of the rectangle (like a scroll) until they meet in the middle. Brush the pastry with the water where it meets to hold together.
• Slice the pastry crosswise into 14-inch palmiers and lay them on the prepared baking sheets. Bake until they puff and turn evenly golden brown, about 15 minutes. Cool and serve at room temperature.

SPICED KETTLE CORN

Steps:

• Have a hot pad or kitchen towel and a paper grocery bag or large baking sheet handy. Heat the vegetable oil in a large heavy-bottomed Dutch oven or pan over medium heat. Place a couple of kernels of popcorn in the pan. When the kernels pop, proceed to the next step.
• Once the oil is hot enough, add the butter and stir quickly into the oil to prevent burning. Immediately add the popcorn and stir (the butter may not be completely melted). Add the sugar right away and stir again. Cover the pan, and start shaking it gently back and forth on the burner, using a hot pad or kitchen towel to protect your hands. Keep shaking as the popcorn pops.
• Once you start hearing 1 or 2 seconds of quiet between the pops, turn the heat off immediately. This means the popcorn is mostly popped. (Be careful not to overcook, as the popcorn can easily burn.) Pour the popcorn into the paper bag or onto the baking sheet and sprinkle with salt, cinnamon, and cayenne. Allow to cool a few minutes before placing in a bowl. (Careful, the hot sugar makes the popcorn extremely hot!)

SWEET AND SPICY CAST IRON KETTLE CORN

Steps:

• Preheat grill if using. Place a large cast iron skillet on grill with vegetable oil in it. Heat until almost smoking. Pour in remaining ingredients and cover skillet. Shake skillet gently while wearing an oven mitt, constantly while corn pops. Remove from heat and pour into a large bowl. Don't let it go too long in between pops or the sugar and butter will burn. It's better to have some "old maids" than burnt popcorn.
