Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 tablespoons oil (ideally corn or canola oil)
  • ½ cup yellow or white popcorn kernels
  • 1 ½ tablespoons butter, melted (optional)
  • Kosher salt, to taste

Instruction

  • Heat the oil in a large stock pot to medium-high heat.
  • Add the popcorn kernels and place the lid on top. Allow the popcorn to pop until popping slows, shaking the pan perodically. Remove from the heat.
  • Once the popcorn completely stops popping, remove the lid.
  • Slowly pour about a quarter of the butter over the popcorn (if using) and sprinkle with salt.
  • Shake the pot so it coats the popcorn; do this again, about 4 or 5 times so the popcorn is evenly coated with butter and salt.
  • Serve immediately.
