Stove Top Popcorn
(1 vote)
Instructions
Heat the oil in an 8-quart saucepan over a medium high heat.
Add two or three popcorn kernels into the oil and pop the lid on. Once the kernels pop, add the rest of the kernels to the pot.
Cover the pot, remove from the heat and wait for 30 seconds before placing the pot back over the burner (this will help to ensure that all your kernels pop at the same time!).
Once you hear the popcorn begin to pop begin to gently shake the pot back and forth over the burner (I usually pick the whole pot up and give it a few intermittent shakes throughout the popping process.
Once the popping slows to several seconds between pops, remove the pot from the heat and pour your popcorn into your serving bowl. Enjoy!!
