Answers:
Here's the way we made it when I was a little girl (a very long time ago):
3 tablespoons oil (NOT butter)
1/2 cup popcorn
3-4 tablespoons melted butter (optional)
salt
Directions
Put the oil in a 3 quart heavy sauce pan (that has a lid) and let it heat over medium heat!. Check to see if the oil is hot enough by dropping in a drop of water!. If it sizzles and pops, the oil is ready!.
Stir in the kernels, turning with a spoon so that they are evenly covered with oil, then spread them in one layer on the bottom of the pot!. I just shake them around a bit until they form a single layer!.
Cover the pot, leaving a small space at the edge for escaping steam!. As soon as the first kernel pops, move the pot gently and continuously back and forth over medium-high heat until the popping stops!.
Turn into a warm bowl!. Toss with melted butter, if desired, and salt to taste!. I also like adding "extras" depending on my mood!. Here are some of the extras I add!.
For Italian Popcorn:
2 Tbsp Parmesan cheese
1 Tbsp Oregano
Mrs!. Dash Lemon Pepper flavor
Grated chocolate

I take some cheap popcorn kernels and pop them in vegetable oil, then I melt one stick of butter(1/2 cup) in the microwave and mix it into the popcorn!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
USE LESS OIL WHEN POPING IT AND ADD MORE BUTTER WHEN ITS POOPED ITS STILL THE SAME BUT WITH MORE BUTTER RATHER THEN OIL!.
P!.S!. ADD LOTS OF SALT *GOOD LUCK*Www@FoodAQ@Com
