What is your favorite brand of stove top popcorn ?
Right now I'm trying Amish varieties.
White ,Yellow, Mushroom and Hulless.

Also your favorite topping ?
Luv butter flavor , but not alot of healthy substitutes.

it is a Wisconsin brand

to make it the way I like , an aluminum pan , oil in pan , 5 kernels in the pan. Med-low heat , then lid on and heat , when you hear the 5th one pop remember to count you dump your additional kernels then shake.

this can be a little or a lot , a 3 quart heavy aluminum sauce pan will do about a 1/4 cup of kernels and be very full

I sometimes made this in an old National #10 canner with a tin lid I could make a grocery bag of popcorn at a time like that that was about a cup of kernels

so you counted the 5 , you dropped your measured out kernels , then you shake the pan lid on to distribute them around , now when they start popping it will be fast and furious , when it starts to slow down you are waiting till you haven't had a pop in 5 seconds , be ready to pull the lid , and dump in a large bowl or bag quickly

no time to waste done and burned are only a few more seconds apart.

Add this to your oil before popping. Flavacol. Butter flavored salt. All the movie theaters use it. You may not be able to find it local , order online like I did.

We buy it by the 50 lb bag from an Amish store. It's white and butterfly. It pops great. We like butter and parmesan cheese on it.

If it's not that great of popcorn to start with, I'll occasionally add some Lawry's Seasoning to it for a little added flavor. I've heard of people using some Old Bay on it too, never tried that myself.

I found two of these at a discount grocery store for ninety nine cents each.
The white cheddar one I really like, haven’t tried the other ones yet

I haven't eaten much since I broke my eye tooth on an "old maid". Oral surgeon told me he gets more business from people eating popcorn than anything else.

One part butter mixed with 3 parts coconut oil is a good topping.

I’ve fried the popcorn in coconut oil and it is a very good oil to cook it in.
