Chef Kunal Kapur Dives Into the World of Popcorn: FAQs, Fun Facts, and Flavourful Discoveries

Munching popcorn while watching your favourite TV show or movie is like a jodi of 'Jay and Veeru'. Both of these activities go hand in hand. But have you ever wondered about getting a more profound knowledge of your favourite snack? Chef Kunal Kapur shared an insightful reel where he shared some additional facts about popcorn.

He shared how there are two types of popcorn: a 'Mushroom Type' and a 'Butterfly Type'. He explained the difference in the names of these popcorns because of their shapes. While the butterfly popcorn is soft and tender and has a shape like the two wings of a butterfly, the other mushroom type has a form of a mushroom and is a little stiff.

Though both have a similar taste, they are used differently while adding different flavours. Such as, while making caramel popcorn, one uses Mushroom popcorn because of its stiff nature.

He shared another amusing fact, a half cup of popcorn after cooking turns into filling a full cooking vessel. He also highlighted that while cooking, some varieties of popcorn do not pop and turn into fully cooked popcorn.
