Preparation

Step 1

Set a large bowl on the counter to pour your kettle corn into.

To a large pot (with a lid) add oil and 3 kernels of popcorn. Cover and heat over medium-high heat* until you hear all 3 kernels pop.

Add the rest of your popcorn and shake pan for about 10 seconds to coat the kernels. Pour sugar and salt directly over the popcorn. Cover and shake for 3 seconds, rest for 3 seconds, repeat, until popcorn begins to pop steadily.

Once that starts, shake pan mostly continuously, pausing occasionally to listen for breaks in popping. Once there is about a 2 second break between pops, pull from heat. Transfer popcorn immediately to your bowl.

*If you know your stove runs hot, keep heat to medium.
