Popcorn Italiano!

   When I was a kid, I remember going to my friend Sandy Shelton's house and her mom sprinkled italian seasoning on the popcorn before we watched a movie and I was like, "what the...?" .  I had never heard of it before, but ever since I've called it italian popcorn.  Chef Fabio had this little blog online the other day and it was a twist on the old recipe.
   
   I also never knew how easy it was to pop popcorn in a little oil on the stove.  My days of Jiffy Pop really never helped me make the connection.  It's so simple and kinda fun!  I still use my Orville Redenbacher Air Popper circa 1985, but this is cool and it smells SO good!

Go to this link for the video.  I didn't use pancetta, but next time... mmm!
