Of all the flavors of popcorn currently available on the market today, none can stand up to the popularity of hot butter popcorn. Butter is by far the most popular popcorn flavoring. It is the flavor served in sports stadiums and movie theaters around the world. It is the most common flavor of microwave popcorn and it is the most consumed flavor of popcorn. Nothing beats hot butter popcorn.
So, how can you make the perfect hot butter popcorn? It is not really that difficult. You can make some hot butter popcorn right now to enjoy with your family in a matter of minutes.
To get started you need the following ingredients:
- Popcorn
- Oil
- Butter
You will need the following supplies:
- Heavy pan with lid
To get started you will pour enough oil in your pan to cover the bottom. Then heat it up over a medium heat. Add a few kernels to the pot and put on the lid. You will be waiting to hear the kernels pop. Make sure you note the number of kernels because once you have heard them all pop you can add in the rest of the popcorn.
Once you add in all the popcorn you will want to shake the pan. Be sure to hold the lid in place. Shaking the pan will help to prevent the popcorn from settling on the bottom and getting burnt.
Once all your popcorn has popped you can melt the butter and pour it over the popcorn. Make sure to use only real butter and not margarine for that original buttery taste.
That's really all there is to making the perfect hot butter popcorn. Here are some additional tips to help ensure you get it perfect:
- Add salt with the butter since it enhances the butter taste. By adding salt you can add less butter and avoid making the popcorn too moist.
- For more even distribution of the butter, put the popped popcorn in a brown bag, add butter and shake.
- Try to not keep the lid too tight on the pot. You want moisture to escape so your popcorn is crunchy, not soggy.
- If you want to avoid the heat of stove top popcorn you can still get that homemade taste by putting kernels in a brown paper bag, folding it closed and popping it as you would microwave popcorn.
