Making Popcorn
This is good for home parties or when simply watching your favorite movie at home, alone or with loved ones. It’s like the ones you can get from the movie theaters!
Prepare the following tools and ingredients:
- White Popcorn Kernels
- Edible Coconut Oil
- Popcorn Seasoning Salt
- Butter
- Large Pot With a Lid
- Microwave Oven
Coat the bottom of the pot with just enough coconut oil. Make sure you use the edible variety as there are coconut oil made only for cosmetic needs. Read the label carefully.
Add a teaspoon of salt. Heat the pot on medium heat.
Add the popcorn kernels. Make sure that you only put an amount about 1/2 the bottom of the pot. Remember to put the lid on. Shake the pot so that the popcorn kernels are coated with oil and salt.
Place this on the burner. Stay close and listen carefully. Once you hear the first pop, start shaking the pot on the burner without removing the pot from the heat source. Keep shaking until the popping slows down to about 3 seconds between pops. You can now remove the pot from the heat.
Place butter in a microwave-proof dish. Add another tablespoon of coconut oil and melt this in the microwave oven.
Mix the butter with the popcorn thoroughly. Place in a bowl and munch away!
