Perfect Popcorn

1. 1

   Heat oil and salt in a large saucepan over medium-high heat.

2. 2

   Put 3 or 4 popcorn kernels in the oil and put on the lid.

3. 3

   When the kernels pop, dump the rest of the popcorn in the pan, remove from heat and count to 30.

4. 4

   Put back on the burner.

5. 5

   The popcorn should start popping fairly quickly.

6. 6

   Keep the lid slightly ajar and jiggle the pan so the kernels do not burn.

7. 7

   Once the popping slows to several seconds between pops, remove from heat and dump into a bowl.

8. 8

   Place the butter in the hot pan until melted.

9. 9

   Pour over the popcorn and mix well.
