Popcorn has always been a good memory in my family. Every new years eve, we would lay out blankets in the living room, throw on movies and my dad would make popcorn. I got to share this tradition in a way with my nieces a couple weeks ago and showed them the same way my dad showed me years ago. And now I’ll share with you all
Ingredients
- 3 qt pot
- 3 tbsp coconut oil
- 1/3 cup popcorn kernels
- 3 tbsp butter
- Salt to taste
- 2 paper grocery bags
1. Put coconut oil in pot on medium heat.
2. Toss 2-4 kernels into the pot.
3. When the kernels pop, it means the oil is hot enough. Put remaining kernels in the pot, shake to ensure the kernels are in a single layer
4. Place a kid on the pot and gently shake as the kernels begin to pop to ensure that there is movement and the kernels stay on the bottom to pop
5. Once kernel popping slows down to Approx 10 seconds between pops, pull off the burner.
6. In smaller pan, or in microwave, melt butter.
7. Double up paper bags and dump popcorn into bag. Pour melted butter on top. Add salt.
8. Fold top of bag and shake to your hearts content to coat popcorn with butter and salt.
9. Enjoy!
