How to make it

  • Place a large pot over high heat, add oil and popcorn. Cover.
  • When it begins to pop, shake pot constantly until popping slows down.
  • Quickly pour into a larger bowl and sprinkle with salt.
  • Stir and sprinkle again and stir.
  • Enjoy a little bit of heaven on earth!
  • It is also nice sprinkled with some parmesan cheese or with flavored salt instead of regular salt.

    Yum...I've always made popcorn in a pot. Use to watch Saturday Night at the Movies with a big bowl of popcorn. Will try with the olive oil, now. 5UP

    My mom used to pop it on top of the stove. It was always soooooo much better than the microwave stuff. Thanks for the memories and the smile :)

    My goodness Joe, I cant even remember the last time I actually made popcorn on the stove top. It's about time to do it again just for old time sake...:-) 5 kernels from me

    I never would have thought to use olive oil. Would extra virgin work?
