My family has a love for eating. They have a love for cooking. They have a love for COOKBOOKS. So naturally, my mom and sister gravitated to my cookbooks that they don't have at home. My sister picked up a fun one to browse and found Alton's (we're on a first name basis) recipe for microwave popcorn. It was delish! Good find, Katie!
Homemade Microwave Popcorn
Homemade Microwave Popcorn1/3 cup popcorn kernels
2-3 tblsp melted butter
salt
Parmesan cheese (optional)
brown paper lunch sack
2 staples
large mixing bowl
Pour kernels into the paper bag, fold over 1/2 inch, twice and staple. Make sure the staples are 2-3 inches apart. Microwave on high for 2-3 minutes or until popping is 5 seconds apart. Pour into bowl and toss with butter, salt and cheese.
You put staples in the microwave? Wouldn't they spark? We just always roll down the bag and it stays. I would think that would be safer - but definitely a great way to make popcorn - we heard about it a few months ago!
