A few weeks ago we got a new microwave oven at Walmart. I also bought a Presto PowerPop microwave popcorn popper. (It is sold next to the microwaves.) It makes the best popcorn I have ever eaten. Here is the recipe my family likes best.
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp salt
1/3 cup Orville Redenbacher popcorn
Pop according to the directions for the popper.
When we first got the popper we tried air popped popcorn, but it wasn't good.
I tried popping corn in butter. Good, but no better than olive oil.
I tried popping in theater butter oil. Also good, but olive oil is better.
The olive oil only has 120 calories per Tbsp, and the recipe serves about 3 people, so it is actually quite healthy.
I tried Jiffy Pop corn, but it isn't nearly as good as Orville Redenbacher.
If your family likes popcorn consider getting this popper. But I warn you, it will ruin microwave popcorn bags forever.
