Baby Yellow Popcorn

The hull on Baby Yellow Popcorn's tiny kernel disintegrates while popping, making it very tender and easy to digest (while leaving nothing to stick in your teeth). A hulless popcorn, grown and nurtured by us in our fertile Indiana soil, Baby Yellow is truly a Gourmet Experience. It is the same breeding as Ladyfinger Popcorn, but we named it different. It pops into a small, yellow tinted popcorn.

Hulless Popcorn means it has less of a hull than most popcorn.  All popcorn has a hull, which is the seed coat of the popcorn.  While all our popcorn has less of a hull than the traditional yellow found in the regular grocery stores, our hulless popcorn has virtually no hull left after popping.  It is smaller popcorn with a small thin hull.  Virtually all of it disintegrates while popping, leaving no hull, or very little hull left to stick in your teeth and it is easier to digest.

HOW TO POP IT

Three minutes. One pot. One ingredient.

However you like to pop it, the process is the same — oil, kernels, heat, lid.
The way popcorn was made for a hundred years before the microwave bag showed up.

Stovetop pot with popcorn
METHOD 1

Stovetop

~ 3 minutes
  1. 1

    Pour about 4 tbsp of oil into a heavy-bottom pot (6-quart or larger).

  2. 2

    Drop in 3 kernels and cover. When they pop, your oil's ready.

  3. 3

    Add 1/2 cup of kernels. Lower the heat slightly. Cover.

  4. 4

    Shake the pot gently until the popping slows to one pop every few seconds.

  5. 5

    Pour into a bowl. Salt, butter, season however you like.

Whirley Pop popcorn popper
METHOD 2

Whirley Pop

~ 3 minutes
  1. 1

    Add 1-3 tbsp of oil and 1/2 cup of kernels to the popper.

  2. 2

    Place over medium heat.

  3. 3

    Turn the handle slowly and steadily.

  4. 4

    When popping slows — or the handle gets hard to turn — you're done.

  5. 5

    Pour out, season, eat.

Good to Know

Use any oil you like — canola oil, vegetable oil, coconut oil or bacon grease

Skip standard air poppers for small-kernel varieties — some kernels may blow out before popping.

The resealable bag keeps every kernel fresh for a year or longer.

Three minutes from kernel to bowl. That's the whole job.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before your first bag.

Almost never — and that's the whole point. Every popcorn kernel has a hull. It has to: the hull is what traps the steam pressure that makes the pop happen. So "hulless" isn't literally hull-free, and we'll never tell you it is. Our kernel is small enough, and the hull thin enough, that virtually all of it disintegrates during the pop instead of ending up wedged in your gums. You'll see a few small flakes in the bowl now and then — that's normal. What you won't see is the thick, sharp shells most people associate with standard yellow popcorn. Most customers who switch tell us the in-teeth problem essentially goes away.

No. Two reasons. First, we harvest the corn at the exact moisture level the kernels need to pop properly — most commodity popcorn is harvested on a calendar instead, which is why you end up with a quarter cup of old maids at the bottom. Second, every kernel is air-sorted before it's sealed, which removes duds and debris that wouldn't have popped anyway. You'll still find the occasional one — that's true of any popcorn — but most customers tell us they can count the leftovers on one hand.

Hulls don't carry the flavor — the endosperm does, and that's still completely intact. Baby Yellow is the same heirloom breeding as Ladyfinger, a small-kernel variety that's been prized in American kitchens since the mid-1800s because the breeders selected for flavor, not for industrial yield. The taste is recognizable as yellow popcorn — that classic, slightly sweet, buttery-capable flavor — just delivered in a smaller, more delicate body. A lot of customers tell us they end up using less butter than they're used to, because the kernel itself has more to offer. Pop a bowl with just salt the first time and decide for yourself.

For a lot of people, yes — but we're not going to make you a medical promise. Popcorn is high in insoluble fiber, and not every gut tolerates it, so check with your doctor if you have a specific condition like IBS, Crohn's, or diverticulitis. What we can say: smaller-kernel hulless varieties have a long-running reputation among people with sensitive digestion for being more comfortable than thick-hulled commodity popcorn. Less hull material per bowl, softer pieces in the mouth. Our stovetop kernels are also a one-ingredient product — there's nothing in the bag but corn. No microwave-bag lining, no artificial butter flavor, no factory-applied oils. You control what goes in. If you've quit popcorn because it bothered you, a 4-ounce single is the cheapest way to find out whether the smaller kernel changes things for you.

However you want. It's just popcorn kernels — pop them the way you'd pop any popcorn. Stovetop in a pot with a little oil, a Whirley Pop, a kettle popper, an electric popcorn machine, an air fryer, even a silicone microwave popper all work. Three minutes and a splash of oil and you're done. Full step-by-step instructions are on our Popping Instructions page.

On our family farm in southeastern Indiana — and only there. Same family, same land, since 1910. We plant the seed, harvest the corn, clean the kernels, sort them, and seal the bag all on the one property. There are no middlemen, no co-packers, and no anonymous warehouses between the field and the bag you open. The popcorn we ship to you is the same popcorn we eat at our own table. That's not a marketing line — it's just how a single-farm operation works.

We're a family. Same family, same farm, four generations deep. We've grown popcorn specifically since 1998 and shipped it directly to homes since 2005. We sell the same popcorn we serve at our own table — that's not a slogan, it's the working principle.
