How to Pop Popcorn on the Stovetop

[@IngridFelfly]

AMAZING!!!! NONE BURNT! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!😍

[@cupofzest]

YAY!!! You are so welcome!!! Did you add any fun toppings or stick with salt?

[@IngridFelfly]

@@cupofzest I sticked with salt because I love it that way (memories and it's lighter at night😂). However, I will try some other toppings with it next time! You saved my popcorn making skills, thank you soooo much🤩

[@cupofzest]

@Ingrid Felfly You are so welcome and I'm all for the classic salt topping! ❤️

Cup of Zest you can add butter in the oil as soon as the oil is hot, it tastes awesome

[@midnight5005]

Tried making popcorn earlier and ended up with burnt kernels and a smoked kitchen, defeated I came to youtube and liked how simple, clear and short your video was. After changing my smoked clothes and throwing out the failed attemped in the trash I gave your method a try. And now I have a perfect bowl of popcorn! 0 burnt or unpopped kernels, 100% perfect fluffly and crispy popcorn. Thank you so much!

[@cupofzest]

You are so welcome! I'm glad you didn't give up after your first attempt and that my video helped you make an awesome bowl of popcorn!

[@peacebeauty796]

Ma please whenever I make mine it always gets burnt why?

[@hannahp836]

I did this with all the "dead" kernels that were leftover from microwave popcorn packets I'd used. I always felt sad that there were so many kernels unpopped, and now I have a way to make sure none go to waste! Thank you!

[@cupofzest]

That is so cool! I never thought of trying to pop those "dead" kernels. I'm so glad it worked!

Thank you 💕 I bought popcorn machine from amazon but it popped chewy popcorn. I already bought 8 lb popcorn kernels!!!!!! I watched a few videos, I like your the best. So I try, and it is the crunchiest and yummiest popcorn I ever eat in my 37 years old of life!! Seriously 💕

Great! You are such a genius! This is the most scientific way to make popcorn!

Thank you for helping me improve my cooking skills! Popety Pop !

Thanks for the tips! I kept burning my popcorn! Now, I know what to do!

[@cupofzest]

Yay! I'm so glad the video helped!

[@kiwiboycorza]

Thank you so much for this method. I've made it this way many times in the past year and it keeps for ages in an airtight container. To spruce it up I sometimes melt a giant knob of butter in a fry pan with some salt, toss a few handfuls of popcorn in and mix

[@cupofzest]

You are so welcome and the salty butter coating sounds sooo good!

[@kimmykim1277]

Just made this. Warning you may eat the whole bowl in one sitting!!. I was impressed that all ther kernels popped with this method!!!

[@cupofzest]

Ha! I've definitely do that while watching a super long movie! So glad you liked the recipe and the method worked well for you!

I want that 30's, 40's, and 50's fashion trending again in America, everywhere on the streets and internet ..... Girl, your channel deserves more than 100 million subscribers. I love you, sweetheart! God Bless You!

[@cupofzest]

Thanks! I do enjoy dressing in retro styles!

[@RichO1701e]

hello from the UK, nice video, very entertaining. I'm literally eating a bowl of popcorn now! I use a similar method to you, I use ghee(clarified butter) instead of oil tho, as it gives a nice buttery taste without actually using butter. Also, if you like salty popcorn, I've learned to grind it into a powder with a pestle & mortar, more even spread, better flavour throughout.

[@cupofzest]

Thanks so much! Your tips are great, I'll have to give the salt tip a go next time I make a batch!
