Popcorn

Ingredients

• Corn
• Salt
• Some fat

  Neutral oil is better if in doubt. This recipe is too warm for olive oil. Butter takes the profile of butter.

Steps

• In a pot, add a layer of oil and two corns.

  The thickness of the layer should be a bit less than the height of the laid-down corns.

• Heat the pot at medium or medium-high heat.
• Once both corns have popped, set them aside and turn the heat off.
• Add the rest of the corn to the pot until it fills the bottom of the pot.
• Let them stay with the heat off for around two minutes.
• Heat the pot again to a medium-high level.
• When the corns start popping, crack the lid open.
• As soon as the popping stops for around two seconds, place all the popcorn immediately in a bowl.
• Sprinkle salt on top.

Adding more corns does not compensate for the amount of smaller and unexploded.
