I made Japanese-style brown sugar soybean flour (kinako) popcorn for watching movies at home.
The rich taste of brown sugar syrup is added to the aroma of soybean flour, and once you start eating it, you will not be able to stop.
The popcorn kernels and soybean flour used are from Samegawa Village, Fukushima.
