Stovetop Popcorn
Heat 3 tablespoons oil in the bottom of a 3 quart saucepan.
Add 1/3 cup of popcorn kernels. Cover.
Gently shake the saucepan to evenly distribute the popcorn kernels.
Allow the popcorn kernels to pop consistently. Remove the saucepan from the heat once you stop hearing constant popping.
Microwave Popcorn
Pour enough popcorn kernels to just about cover the bottom of a brown paper lunch bag.
Fold the top down of the brown paper bag and secure with a small piece of tape.
Use the popcorn button on your microwave or cook on high for about 1 minute. Stop the cooking when you hear more than 2 or 3 seconds between popping sounds.
