Ingredients
1/3
Cup
Popcorn
Any type of kernels
1
Tbsp
Oil
High smoke point preffered
To Taste
Popcorn Salt
Popcorn salt has smaller grains, but any salt will work
Instructions
Put oil in vessel and place on medium heat.
Add 2 or 3 kernels to the oil immediately.
When test kernels pop add the rest of the kernels and turn the burner to high.
Frequently agitate to ensure the popcorn don't burn.
Once the popping noise stops, take off heat and place into a bowl.
Toss with salt while still hot and serve.
Notes
I use a Whirlypop, but a covered bowl will work just as well as long as it is covered (YouTube Alton Brown's popcorn making)
Cooking time varies by your stove's burner output, adjust as needed.
