Hot air popcorn vs. stove or microwave?!


Question:

Hot air popcorn vs. stove or microwave?

I just bought a hot air popcorn popper and used it for the first time. It was alright but the popcorn was really chewy. I was wondering if it has to do with the kind of kernels I used (a generic brand) or if it's the popcorn popper? Has anyone else had this happen and if not, what kind of kernels do you use?


Answers:

Hot air popcorn does tend to be dry and chewy. Personally, I cherish my old electric popcorn popper from the 1950's. It's the kind that uses a little bit of oil, and the popcorn is delicious.

If you ever find a regular popcorn popper at a garage sale or resale shop, make sure that the cord is in good shape -- no breaks or frays. Then buy a good brand of popcorn, and I'm willing to bet that you will end up with the best bowl of popcorn you've ever eaten.
