Next time just grab a paper bag , put the corn in then, put the paper bag into the microwave about 1 or 2 minutes .. and make sure you check on it ... cause it will burn .. and you are good to go~
just burned my freakin' caramell flavoured pcorn and got so angry had to check that theres a vid out there for my problem, and again. I'm impressed. Thank you Sir.
me... tho.. quite a few of them got burnt tho and theres still kernels left :( should have watching this video beforehand... well better luck next time :D
Lol... me! I just made the worst microwave popcorn of my life! Left it unattended (stupid, stupid!) and burnt like half the bag.... Now I'm finding out how to make UNburnt popcorn while eating the rest of my bag of popcorn that didn't burn. :)
Wow. I was ready for this to be a dismal failure or at least a gimmick, but I must say, it appears to work. Going into this I would say my popcorn success was maybe about 50/50. (I use Pop Secret). I tried various flattening procedures, all to no avail. Invariably a hole would burn in the bag and rarely full inflation was achieved. While unsure what the bent edges do, my sense is the water on top of the plate and bottom of the bag slows/evens the heating process and acclimates the bag from any "hot spots" that punch a hole at the seams. Hence the slightly longer cook time--so refrain from using the single button "Popcorn" setting if your microwave has it. Use 5 minutes or so on high and then wait for the 5-6 sec in between pops to stop. It's a little more work, but well worth it if it normally takes 2 or 3 tries to get 1--which is utterly frustrating.
Holy crap! It's PERFECT! I mean absolutely 100% unburnt. HOW!? I noticed that it didn't start to pop until much later in the process, and when it started popping, ALL of it started popping. Is that why it works? Regardless, THANK YOU!
I just wish there was a way I could get already popped popcorn without having to spend the time to do it myself. I have a life hack where I don't have to pay for electricity to watch a move, I just wait till the theater playes it and when I'm gone I turn the lights off! Free electricity and movies!
*when you put too much time (I put **4:00**) cooking popcorn and you end up fucking up the popcorn as well as making the whole house smell like fucking burnt popcorn*
Or you can just soak the entire bag and shake off most of the water off the bag and roll it up exactly in the vid and spread the flaps open so when they pop there will be much more space for the heat to get through
Thanks alot. NOT i followed every single step %100 correctly and i ended up with my paper plate melting and sticking to the bag and the inside of the bag was burnt and some of my popcorn was burnt. thankfully its still edible!
