Answers:
You can do them in a large soup pot-just heat some vegetable or corn oil, add the kernels, put on a lid, and shake the pot back and forth on the burner (don't do this on a flat top stove-it will scratch)!! Keep shaking the pot, keeping the bottom on the burner-after about a minute, you will hear the kernels start to pop, keep shaking until the popping slows to about 3 seconds between pops, and immediately remove it from the burner-keep the lid on for a minute more to hold in any kernels that pop after you remove it from the heat!. This is how it was done before microwave popcorn came out- and is MUCH healthier popcorn than the microwave stuff!. Enjoy!Www@FoodAQ@Com

If you dont have a popcorn maker, the best thing to do would be to get yourself a pot!. put a small amount of oil or real butter in first, I would say no more than a tablespoon!. Then put it on the stove and heat it until it is melted or hot!.!.!.While you are waiting, you can measure out 1/3 cup popcorn kernels!. When the oil or butter is ready!.!.!.dump the popcorn in!.

You are going to want to put a lid on the top of the pot, turn the heat down to medium and then shake the pot in a circular motion!. The popcorn will eventually start popping!. When the popping slows down, turn the heat off!.

There you go!! Fresh popped popcorn! It tastes yummy this way too!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

put oil in a pot and let it warm for about 2 minutes!. then put the kernels in and place the top on the pot (not all the way since air has to come out, but enough for the kernels not to come out) and cook on high to medium heat until the popping sounds are about 5 seconds apart!. Enjoy!
How much!? about a handful kernels for a medium-big size pot!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

if you want to do it the old skool way go to the store and buy a bag then do it in the large pot!. the instructions are on the bag!. or look to see if your microwave has a popcorn setting!. most microwaves do these days!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
