Charlito's Cocina Pop-Lito Pimenton Popcorn
- by Charlito's Cocina

Pop-Lito Pimenton Popcorn is utterly snackable but also deserving of a place on any first-class cheese board. Elevating this snack is a dusting of Pimentón de la Vera—the same spice that Charlito’s Cocina uses in their Chorizo Seco. Made from chiles that are smoked, dried on oak wood, and stone-ground, this paprika imparts an earthiness that complements the salt, making this crunchy snack completely irresistible. Sprinkle on a bit of Murray’s Grated Parmigiano Reggiano for a total flavor bomb.
“I am so addicted to this popcorn! I’m vegetarian, so it’s a great alternative to chorizo when I’m snacking on Manchego.”
