  • 2 tablespoons butter melted

  • Once the two kernels have popped, add the rest of the kernels in and shake to spread it evenly around the pot. Cover with the lid again and then listen to the popcorn pop until it is rapidly popping, crack the lid slightly to let out a little steam. Turn off the heat once the popping has slowed down.
