Instructions
- In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat, combine the oil and 2 popcorn kernels. Cover the pot and wait for the kernels to pop, which might take a few minutes. In the meantime, place a large serving bowl near the stove so it’s ready when you need it.
- Once the kernels pop, remove the pot from the heat and pour in the remaining popcorn kernels. Cover the pot again, and shake the pot to distribute the kernels evenly. Once the kernels start popping, tip the lid just a touch to allow steam to escape.
- Continue cooking until the popping sound slows to about one pop per every few seconds. (If the popcorn tries to overflow the pot, just tip the upper portion of popcorn into your bowl and return it to the heat.)
- Remove the lid and dump the popcorn into your serving bowl. Sprinkle the popcorn with a couple pinches of salt, to taste, and any other topping you would like. Toss the popcorn and serve immediately, for best flavor and texture. The popcorn will taste good for several hours, though.
Notes
- Corn kernels can get stale after time and can loose their moisture. Buy new kernels if you've had yours for some time.
- Shake the pot well to keep moving the corn so that it doesn't burn on the bottom of the pan.
- Don't add more oil than the recipe calls for. Too much oil can result in soggy popcorn.
