Guaranteed Fun

Once you try this popcorn, you’ll never go back to microwave popcorn!
The Office (or movie/show of your choice) + homemade popcorn = a fun, relaxing evening!
Here is what you’ll need (4 servings):
1/4 c. vegetable oil
1/4 c. unpopped popcorn (yellow or white—doesn’t matter)
3 T butter
In a 2 qt. pot combine all ingredients over high heat. Shake pan back and forth continuously. When the first kernel pops, cover and continue shaking. When the popcorn begins to lift the lid, remove pot from heat and remove lid. Pour popcorn into a bowl and salt. Add a little salt and then taste it before adding more.
Happy popping!

My popcorn popper is in storage, so I had to learn how to cook it on the stove. I haven’t tried cooking it in the butter before. That would make it easier.
We love homemade popcorn. Buy my hubby has to use the machine with the dome lid. He says it’s “his” way. Whatever - he cleans it - lol!

I make popcorn like this, except w/o the butter.
Microwave popcorn has some kind of additive in it that upsets my stomach. Great tip! I may even try it with butter next time!
Yum! I love popcorn. I love the office. I’ll have to try this.
I love it! The experience of popping corn on the stove is so fun and it tastes a thousand times better than microwave popcorn!I haven’t done this in so long I am going to have to try it tonight! Great tip!
