Step by Step Method
Step 1
Heat a large heavy frying pan over medium-high heat and add the bacon and cook, stirring as the fat renders, for about 5or until the bacon is crisp.
Step 2
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels.
Step 3
Pour the bacon fat into a small bowl, leaving the brown solids behind, reserving the bacon fat.
Step 4
Heat a large heavy pot over medium-high heat until hot and add the oil and popping corn and cover the pot.
Step 5
Once the kernels begin to pop, using pot holders, shake the pan constantly over the heat as the corn pops for about 5 minutes or until all the corn has popped.
Step 6
In a large bowl, toss the popcorn with the bacon, reserved bacon fat, and the salt.
Step 7
Using a microplane grater, finely grate most of the parmesan over the popcorn and toss to coat.
Step 8
Grate more cheese on top and serve immediately.
