TIPS AND HINTS
POPCORN AMOUNTS
Note: Premium popcorns have larger kernels,
resulting in a higher yield of popcorn. If using
premium popcorn, the yield of popped popcorn
will be about 1 cup greater than stated above.
Note: DO NOT use more than
1
⁄3 cup of
unpopped kernels when using premium
popcorn.
The seasoning possibilities for popcorn are
endless. Just add melted butter and your
favorite seasonings.
With toppings added, popped popcorn will become
much crisper and the flavors become more intense if
it is heated with desired toppings in a 300°F oven for
about 15–20 minutes before serving. For best
results, heat it on a baking sheet that you have lined
with foil and sprayed with cooking oil.
Note: Serving bowl should not be put into oven.
It is very important to use fresh popcorn. If your
popcorn is old, the kernels will not fully pop
and/or it may take a long time for them
to pop.
