Preparation

Step 1

Equipment: You need two pieces of equipment. 1) 2.5 quart-size or similar microwave-safe glass bowl. Pyrex is perfect and highly recommended as this is going to get really hot; corn will not pop in a bowl that is not microwave safe and 2) microwave-safe dinner plate.

Place popping corn in the bowl. Place inverted dinner plate on top of the bowl and place in microwave oven. Microwave on High for 2 minutes 45 seconds.

The plate and the bowl will be very hot. Please, please be careful and use hot pads to remove the plate and bowl from the oven.

Also, the time required to achieve a full and complete pop will depend on your microwave oven. I found that I needed to add up to one full minute with the addition of the olive oil. The brand and type of popping corn you use could also result in a different cooking time. You will need to experiment, which is quite fun.
