When I was younger we had am air pop popcorn machine. It gave the popcorn a fluffy texture and you could add as much butter or seasonings as you want. Growing older and now as an adult I don't own a popcorn maker so we do the microwave kind. This last week my sister'n law introduced me to skillet popcorn and I am hooked! Not only is it 100 times better for you than microwave , it's almost just as easy. Now I used coconut oil but olive, vegetable or canola will work just fine.
For enough for myself and kids to share I used 1/4 c oil, and 1/3c popcorn. In a large skillet heat up your oil on high heat. Pour in your popcorn, cover and wait to hear the first pop. Once you hear it shake the pan back and forth over the burner to prevent burning.
You will see the pop corn begin to quickly pop. When you hear the popping slow to 10 seconds in between the pops go ahead and pull it off the burner. We sprinkle our with a little bit of sea salt and my kids say it taste just like at the movies.
