Préparation
Finely chop the basil, peeled garlic, and parmesan (SuperSonic Chopper compact).
Add the olive oil, salt, and pepper, and blend again to get a smooth mixture.
Place the corn kernels in the WOW Popcorn maker (placing the glass tray at the bottom) without adding anything. Close by aligning the illustrated circles on the lid with the openings on the base (this allows steam to escape).
Cook for about 3 minutes at maximum power in the microwave (up to 1000 watts). As soon as the corn kernels barely pop anymore (2 seconds between each pop), stop the microwave. Depending on your microwave, the time may be shorter or longer than 3 minutes (see the user manual for more detailed instructions).
Shake the popcorn and turn the WOW Popcorn maker with the lid to remove unpopped kernels through the openings in the base.
Immediately spread the pesto over the hot popcorn, place the lid in the closed position, and shake for about 30 seconds.
Enjoy or store uncovered at room temperature and eat quickly.
Note: After use, for cleaning, remove the glass tray from the silicone base and handle it carefully.
