Swanky Snacks: Truffle Popcorn
Wanna throw a swank cocktail party; but, don't feel like busting your hump?
First off, start with bubbly*: Champagne, Cava, Prosecco, or Sparkling Wine.
Now you're 3/4 of the way to a swank party. Wiggle over the swank-finish line by dishing up this little bar snack:
Truffle-Popcorn
- 1 or more bags microwave popcorn (Do I really need to explain how to pop the stuff?)
- Black truffle oil (it's expensive, but you'll only be using an eensy bit)
Pop the popcorn - be sure not to burn it! Pour a small amount of popcorn into daiquiri/margarita glasses. Just before serving, drizzle a very small amount of truffle oil over popcorn. Enjoy the party.
*Surprisingly, a dense, dark, brooding red wine will work as well.
Oy. Truffle popcorn?
I've drizzled olive oil, but truffle oil? Might never have had the idea.

I think it's delightfully funky-tasting.
