  • 1/2 cup Popcorn kernels
  • 2-3 tablespoons Oil
  • Morton Popcorn Salt
  • Melted Butter (Optional)

Instructions

  1. Pour approximately 2 tablespoons of oil in the bottom of a medium/large pan. The oil should generously cover the bottom of the pan.
  2. Heat the pan over Medium/High heat.
  3. Put 3 test popcorn kernels in the pan and put on the cover.
  4. After you hear the test kernels pop, take off the lid.
  5. Add popcorn kernels (see notes below) to the pan and put the lid back on.
  6. Allow the popcorn to pop.
  7. Gently slide the pan around on the burner during the first few minutes of the process to avoid burning the kernels.
  8. Take the pan off the heat when the sound of kernels popping slows down. (The whole popping process should only take 3-4 minutes.)
