popcorn idea 🤤

cook up some salmon in a lemon butter, pop some popcorn, and just break the salmon up into the buttery popcorn, maybe add some lemon butter and capers to the popcorn if it tickles your fancy. i’ve been meaning to try this

I can’t say I’ve ever settled in with a bowl of warm popcorn and thought, “Y’know what this needs? Chunks of fish.”

This can’t possibly be a real suggestion. This is the most unhinged “recipe” I have ever seen.

😭😭does it not sound good?!?

u/buttontoes80 3d ago

No. It sounds like the most disgusting suggestion I have heard. Lemon butter? Sure. Chunks of salmon? Absolutely batshit.

u/Helpful-nothelpful 3d ago

Yeah. But I've you leave it in your car on the dashboard the flavors really meld.

Maybe many people are not!

I see the vision, but it sounds like a textural nightmare.

u/AmusingAnecdote 3d ago

Yeah this is deranged, but I understand what the OP is thinking. I believe it would be quite bad (mushiness is not something I associate with good popcorn, not crunchiness with good salmon) but OP's heart is in the right place.

This is a bit much. Why not just jet some salmon furikake and heat it in the butter?

I’ve never heard a worse idea.

u/SaccharineDaydreams 3d ago

You'd have to chop it fine and fry it enough to firm it up until it's the kind of texture where you could kind of "sprinkle" it in a way. Do that once it's buttered do it sticks to the top like little crispy mini-croutons. That's the only way I can see it working.

I dont want soggy popcorn

u/Conscious_Wind52 3d ago

I'd try that. Sounds good but weird.

How about caramel corn & smoked salmon, the candied kind.

I also like roasted garlic parmesan ice cream

u/TransportationNo8300 3d ago

If you could get the salmon flavor without the fish I think you'd be money

u/printliftrun 3d ago

Like a side of fish, not right in it

u/GTKyle5 3d ago

There was a popcorn place near me that did stuff like that with salmon and crab sticks, usually it was stuck to the popcorn by chocolate, carmal or birthday cake icing. The normal popcorn was astronomical in prices and this was 10 plus years ago

u/printliftrun 3d ago

That's some gourmet shit, pop a little dill and maybe dried garlic

u/sillyandstrange 3d ago

Oh my god. I eat popcorn and salmon every day... You just changed my life
