What does popcorn mean

Popcorn means: popcorn.

Popcorn (Popcorn) is a puffed food made from corn, ghee, and sugar put together in a popcorn popping machine, which has a sweeter flavor. Take the right amount of corn into the popcorn pot, and seal the top, and then put the popcorn pot on the stove constantly rotating to make it evenly heated, you can pop popcorn.

Thousands of years ago, popcorn was first discovered in the Inca Empire, is one of the world's oldest snacks. The principle of popcorn, take the right amount of corn (or rice) into the popcorn pot, and seal the top cover, and then put the popcorn pot on the stove and constantly rotate so that it is evenly heated, you can pop delicious popcorn to.

This is because in the heating process, the temperature inside the pot continues to rise, the pressure of the gas inside the pot is also increasing. When the temperature rises to a certain level, the rice will gradually become soft, most of the water within the rice into water vapor. Because of the higher temperature, the pressure of water vapor is very strong, so that the softened rice grain expansion.

But at this time the pressure inside and outside the rice is balanced, so the rice will not burst in the pot. When the pressure inside the pot rises to 4-5 atmospheric pressure, suddenly open the top cover of the popcorn pot, the rapid expansion of the gas inside the pot, the pressure is quickly reduced, making the difference between the pressure inside and outside the rice grains, resulting in high pressure within the rice grains of water vapor is also rapidly expanding, instantaneous bursting of the rice grains, that is, into the popcorn.

Traditional popcorn is made from corn, which is heated to high temperatures in a small converter, which may add some saccharin to flavor, but will not add any margarine-based fat. While traditional popcorn is not high in fat, traditional small converters may release lead at high temperatures.
