PALOMITAS ACARAMELADAS
CARAMELIZED POPCORN
Popcorn or "cotufas", as they are called in my country, is a snack that is widely consumed worldwide and is usually salty. At the cinema, circus, parks, fairs, children's parties, family gatherings or alone at home; In any of these cases, a delicious bowl of popcorn is enjoyed, because corn is the star ingredient, since cotufa corn is a variety with a different shape and size than that usually used in other preparations.
Existe un grupo de aficionados a la vida dulce y los nuevos sabores, y entre ellas me encuentro yo, debo decir que antes de preparar esta receta, sólo había consumido palomitas acarameladas empaquetadas, de esas que venden en las tiendas. Pero un día quería prepara una rica merienda a mis hijas y se me vino a la mente preparar estas cotufas. Desde ese momentos ni yo, ni mis hijas hemos volver a comer las cotufas empaquetadas jejeje. A continuación mi receta...
There is a group of fans of sweet life and new flavors, and among them I am, I must say that before preparing this recipe, I had only consumed packaged caramelized popcorn, the kind that they sell in stores. But one day I wanted to prepare a delicious snack for my daughters and it occurred to me to prepare these popcorn. Since then neither I nor my daughters have eaten the packaged popcorn again lol. Here is my recipe ...

Paso N°2 / Step N ° 2
- En una olla o caldero, agregamos el azúcar, la margarina, la sal, el agua y mezclamos todos los ingredientes.
- In a pot or cauldron, add the sugar, margarine, salt, and water and mix all the ingredients.
- Luego llevamos al fuego medio , hasta que se convierta en un caramelo dorado.
- Then we bring to the medium fire, until it turns into a golden caramel.
- Inmediatamente, volcamos este caramelo encima de nuestras cotufas y con la ayuda de una cuchara o paleta, mezclamos para lograr que todas queden mojadas en el caramelo.
- Immediately, we pour this caramel on top of our popcorn and with the help of a spoon or trowel, we mix to ensure that they are all wet in the caramel.
- Por ultimo dejamos reposar a temperatura ambiente y para el caso de los niños podemos hacerlas más llamativas agregando un poco de lluvia de caramelos.
- Finally we let it rest at room temperature and in the case of children we can make them more striking by adding a little rain of candy.
