After sitting in a stainless steel bowl since harvest a few months ago, today I pulled off the kernels from the few sad ears that had escaped the raccoons.
The kernels measured up to 3/4 cup.
Popped 1/4 cup of them on the stove -- and it worked fabulously! Used margarine, with some salt; heat at medium. Started by putting just three kernels. After the first three popped, added the rest of the kernels and shook the pot nearly continuously until they were pretty much all popped.
Only three or four kernels didn't pop, and these were nicely easy to crunch/eat.
Very tasty!
Will definitely try growing it again, and will try to harvest before the raccoons find them.
