- 1). Pop your popcorn in the hot air popcorn popper according to the manufacturer's instructions. Place the popcorn in a big bowl, so that you have room to stir it without making a mess.
- 2). Sprinkle about 1 tsp. chili powder all over the top of the popcorn. Add a pinch of cayenne if you desire.
- 3). Stir the chili powder and cayenne pepper into the popcorn and taste. Add a little more chili powder or cayenne if the spice is not hot enough for your liking.
- 4). Season to taste with salt. Start with 1/2 tsp., then add a little more if necessary. Remember that a little salt goes a long way.
