The perfect method for crunchy stove-top popcorn!
Heat oil on the stove top in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. It's important to use a heavy pot to keep the corn kernels from burning before they pop.
Add three kernels of popcorn and cover the pot.
Wait until the three "test" kernels have popped, and then add the rest of the popcorn kernels to the pot.
Cover the pot again, and remove it from the heat for 30 seconds.
Return the pot to the heat. Cook, shaking the pot every few seconds to keep the popcorn from burning.
Once the popping slows down to one pop every few seconds, turn the heat off. Remove the lid from the pot as soon as the popping has completely stopped, t prevent the kernels from steaming and getting less crispy.
Add salt to taste, and flavor with whatever you want!
