How to Make Stovetop Popcorn
Get perfect popcorn every time with this stovetop popcorn tutorial. All you need is popcorn kernels, a high heat oil, and salt!
Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup popcorn kernels
- 1/2 tablespoon olive oil*
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Place 1/2 tablespoon of oil on the bottom of a medium to large pot. Make sure your pot is at least 2.5 quarts so that it can fit the popped kernels. Turn heat to medium/high and place two unpopped popcorn kernels in the oil. Cover and let sit, shaking periodically.
- Once the two popcorn kernels have popped, you can add the rest of the unpopped popcorn. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt, cover, and shake kernels so that they are fully coated in oil.
- Continue to periodically shake kernels (with the top on) about every 20 seconds so that the kernels don't burn. Soon enough, they will begin to pop!
- Continue shaking pot as the popcorn pops. Once there are about 2 or 3 seconds in between pops, you know the popcorn is done popping and it’s time to eat!
- Option to add more salt or any other seasonings your heart desires!
