You can buy the microwave popcorn in the bags that has no butter. For me there's no such thing as too much butter. When I do a microwave bag, I use the Movie Theater Butter flavor one and add more actual butter to it!
@@TroutButter It's always coated in butter to get the most popcorn inside the bag. Homemade popcorn just needs a 1/4 teaspoon or enough to coat the inside of a Walmart popcorn bowl. Remember to shake it to coat every seed well. Sometimes, their would be seeds left inside the bowl just use the leftovers for other batch. Healthy oil is better than unhealthy oil. Don't go insane on the unhealthy oil cause it would effect you later on in life. Not good consuming unhealthy oil all the time. I hope this helps out.
I have this popper, the "butter dispenser" is not very good. Here is how I do it. about a tablespoon or 1.5 tablespoons olive oil in the popper, then 4-5 pats of butter, then a 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt, and 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of black pepper then add 2 of the lid measurements of popcorn kernels. Put in microwave for 5-6 minutes, ENJOY!
i found this video looking for instructions on how to use the popcorn jar, I left with knowledge of the popcorn bowl from the end as well as various popcorn seasonings. I thank you.
I have the QVC popper that I got about a month ago and we use it 2 to 3 times a week. We loooove the popper (and I also am giving the other 2 as gifts). I have popped it dry, put butter in the top like you did, and I've also put a little coconut cooking oil in the bottom and it's always delicious!! I have tried the paper bag trick a couple times and every time I have burned the popcorn even when taking out before the 2 second rule. Anyway, wanted to put my 2 cents in for the QVC popper.
Great reviews and demos. I am torn between the 2 but I would probably get the silicone version so I could use it as a steamer and bake cake batter in the microwave.
I use a collapsible silicone popcorn popper when I’m feeling too lazy to make popcorn on the stove. I love it! But I do add my butter flavored coconut oil and Flavacol to the kernels before popping. It turns out perfect every time. I’m interested in trying the glass popper though.
So easy! But be sure it fits into your microwave. I love mine (I'm popcorn obsessed). I need the Cuisinart one now, but I think microwave is too small. Microwave cooking is an art to me that requires tweaking of... everything.
I like the one that allows you to put butter in the top and has it melt on popcorn as it's cooking. Nothing like real butter on hot popcorn. I'm going to have to check this one out!
Naomi Love I just bought one of these and the popcorn is coming out pretty tough and not fluffy at all. I put in one cap full of kernels and have not put any butter in the drip cup. Do you have any recommendations. Thank you.
3 minutes when not hot. Or 2:30 when it’s hot. Spread the oil or butter around the inside of the bowl and shake it to spread it. The oil would coat everything. Use a 1/4 teaspoon or half of it. I used hemp oil. I love it
@@rickcormier9160 I put the oil around the inside of the bowl then drop the popcorn seeds. Make sure that it's close to the line on the rubber lid. Make sure to spread the oil all around on the inside of the bowl then shake it to coat the seeds. Make sure. You don't leave it in the microwave for a long time. Sometimes, their would be a few popcorn seeds that didn't pop at first. Just pop them later. I might do a video of it if anything.
Hey, did you replay the 2nd pour of popcorn I stead of the taste test? Or was that just a repeat scene by accident. As much as i like seeing popcorn being poured and all ;)
The second one the bowl seemed to have moisture in the lid that would drip onto the popcorn and it looked like moisture in the bottom also. I'd use the first one. Thanks for another great review!
I have the glass one. Every time I use it ! It burns my popcorn. Why ? I count the pops and it still burns. When I first got it it didn’t burn my popcorn but now it does it every time. I’m upset with this popcorn popper. Because I love popcorn 🍿 but it waste more then if I would just make it on the stove.. I would like not having to use oil with my popcorn. Is there something wrong with my glass popcorn popper?
I was having the same problem but finally got it right. A few tips - 1) Use fresh kernels. Store them in an airtight container. 2) Don't mix anything into the kernels before cooking (no oil or salt - it can speed up cooking) 3) Don't add too many kernels (use the fill line on the silicone lid as a guide)
Qvc popcorn popper nice but you need a high powered microwave. It doesn't work as fast or pop a lot in the older brands. I had it and returned it. For the newer ones I'm assuming works well
The real movie popcorn flavor is called Flav-o-cal it comes in a quart container. I've tried some of those other seasonings and yuk. If you want to get the full movie theater popcorn experience you should find the Flav-o-cal sticks which is a mixture of seasoning and oil to pop your corn in.
On Amazon there's a glass popper that is $19, exactly like the one in this video except for what is printed on the outside called "Ecolution Kitchen Extras Glass Microwave Popcorn Maker"
Was going to get one but realize from this demo you need to dirty 2 bowls. The glass one you can't put your hand into and the silicone one would collapse if you tried to eat it out of the bowl and I have gotten rid of silicone items because they are annoying to hand wash. Want one that is glass shaped with a lid that vents I guess.
We have the glass popcorn popper. It works great except sometimes the microwave will burn the butter before the popcorn is done. It can give the popcorn a black-ish coloring but the end result doesn't taste burned at all. However, now I want to try this movie theater butter. If I find that, I'll probably swap to the other container.
I stove top with a covered pot and 2 tbs of canola or vegetable oil and salt. The butter is overkill. Youd be surprised how delicious correctly cooked popcorn is with a small amount of seasoning is
Hey jack, not sureif it matters to you or not but something i do so i get an even cotion of butter or butter flavoring like the movie theater butter i have a spray bottle i prefer the kind of spray bottle that body sprays are in you can get empty clean ones from like dollar tree and other bargin bundle stores then just fill it and spray over popcorn, i hate getting dry unbutterd popc orn so i will spray some on toss it around then add some more, this prevents you from getting soggy popcorn when too much pours in one spot anyway just thought id pass that along
I stopped using air poppers because when they start to pop, they launch unpopped kernels into the bowl. I was so tired of having a lot of unpopped kernels. Now I use one of those machines that spins around on a hot surface and the lid is also the bowl that you just flip over when done. Works so much better.
The "movie theatre butter" if you mind just a little bit about your health, read closely the ingredients and you'll see nothing there is remotely close to butter. The artificial flavours are also pure chemicals. Just eat your popcorn naturally without "so called butter" or any other chemicals. Your body will thank you later
I do too, for it taste so good. Does your family look at you as if your a freak, because my family has, until I gave them some to try, now they love it, hahaha.
Putting that butter and seasonings you show is just as unhealthy as the popcorn bags. I use organic kernels, butter alternatives such as olive oil or coconut nut oil then use Himalayan salt and some garlic powder sprinkled on top. Viola! DAMN good and healthy!
