- Today we're REALLY getting super corny, and talking about popcorn! Pop corn is an easy, healthy snack that takes only minutes to make. And perhaps best of all you can season it in so many different ways. I'll show you my favorite seasoning, and why I think the microwave is the best tool to actually pop our easy homemade popcorn!

The advantage of stove top popcorn is the oil. I use a healthy glob of coconut oil. Scrumptious!
I had no idea that you can pop popcorn without any oil or fat present. So cool.
Yes, it's called "air popped". You can buy an air popper for cheap, and they're easy enough for a child to use.
@@Serai3this shows a bag and ⅓ cup popcorn in a microwave .
Stove top using Bacon Grease. BEST EVER. Good crunch with the best flavour ever. Not bacony, but it has something extra that puts it over on other popcorns.
I like the way you think Gerry! That's going on my to-do list.
Maybe take a couple strips of the crispy bacon you cooked, crumble it into tiny pieces and add it to any seasonings that you use? Mmmmm!
@@robhay57 The boyscouts tried selling bags of flavoured popcorn one year. It didn't do well but they had a Bacon flavoured popcorn that was better than sex! I haven't found that flavour since.
@@Gerry1of1 You have been doing it wrong. I like bacon but...
As an employee of a company that makes microwave popcorn, I can't condone people learning how to do this stuff themselves. How will we use chemicals to control the minds of our consumers. Think of your poor corporate overlords. How will they pay for thier yachts and mistresses.
Bro you're brutally honest, ain't you?😂
Who cares what u think
Who cares what u think 😮
My popcorn never lasts long enough to worry about a little milk liquids. Love corn. Have done this method for years, but I love stove top too.
I have an alternate recipe that cooks the butter into the popcorn. Try using a Pyrex bowl with a lid, corn, coarse black pepper, and a tablespoon of butter - salt optional. Microwave for 5-7 minutes depending on the microwave. Stop cooking when popping stops.
Same here. Paper bags don't hold as much so I use 6qt glass bowl. Pour half cup of popcorn and drizzle canola oil or melted butter in. Don't have a lid for the bowl so I use a dinner plate to cover it. Microwave for 6 minutes. Stop when popping slows down. Scoop popped corn into serving bowl, leaving unpopped kernels. Season with whatever you like.
Love, pop corn.
The way you popped that in the lunch bag was so cool!!!!
Thanks Isabella!
I never knew it could be done that simply. Thank you for sharing.
I’ll try it tonight ! Thank you for explaining everything so well
Man, am I glad I saw this! Didn't know this was possible! What's great is that you can choose whether or not you want to add fat (butter), thus making it slightly less caloric dense if you opt to just put salt/spices on. Thanks a lot!
Love it!! Moving my microwave, dropped it, pieces and parts flew everywhere, been popping popcorn on stove top, top with melted salted butter and hefty sprinkle of cayenne. Love the heat!! Baby daughter gave me a new microwave for Mother’s Day/ birthday (5/24) so gonna pick up paper bags and try your method.
Looking forward to it.
I enjoyed this video more than I expected. Thank you for the good content.
Tried this tonight. I didn't have enough parmesan cheese so just used butter and salt but will make it again when I have the parmesan. I make homemade garlic butter for garlic bread so next time I think I might try some of this on the popcorn too. I usually make popcorn in a large pot on the stove but it turns out greasy sometimes. This did not and it was very good. Then I put the paper bags in my woodstove to help keep the fire going. Win, win, win. Thanks for doing this.
This is amazing. I’m going to try it for sure.
Thank you!!! We bought an air popper and always ended up with chewy popcorn that we then put on a sheet in the oven. This was perfect. We didn't have the lunch bag size and used a grocery sack cut in half (which fits on our glass turn plate). Perfect!
Just tried it. Love it. Thank you.
I love the "no mess" of the paper bag.
I knew the brown bag trick but I really liked the infographics and that seasoning sounds really good!
I liked how you gave an insight about the readymade popcorns and packaging. I have never used them but thanks to you i will never have to use them ! Thankyou for this easy technique!
Thanks for watching!
Yummy, I love popcorn and I season with lemon pepper and butter. Oh so good.
I tried the method here and it really, really worked. I'll never go back to bags!!! I'd had no idea that the popcorn in bags was not different from regular popcorn. I once did popcorn on the stove for the kids of a friend, they had no idea it could be done that way. And now I can have popcorn without even doing it on the stove and having to add oil. This way tastes so much better!
Ghee is easy to find in a jar that doesn't even need to be refrigerated, but if you heat butter in a pan until it just barely starts to brown, not only does it drive off the water but it tastes really good over popcorn.
I always put browned butter on my popcorn…the BEST!!!😀😊
or just heat butter up and skim the top stuff off and yay butter oils
Easy if you live near a city and not in a food desert
@@jillv4006 If you can get popping corn, you can get butter.
@@milesparris4045 butter yes but not ghee. I’ve heard of it but don’t know what it is
parm, salt, a pinch of pepper, garlic powder a pinch of cayene makes a good seasoning blend
That's a dad blend. Kids never like the Parmesan lol.
Popcorn is my fav snack - super satisfying and fairly low cal (esp of you can control how much you’re making and what you’re topping it with). I’ve been begrudgingly a slave to the micro-bags for decades because of the convenience, so needless to say, I will definitely be trying this - thanks much
Hello! Thank you for sharing your recipe to pop popcorn. I tried it 8-17-23 at 12:30 AM and it popped up great. My Mom was impressed with your method and likes it too.
I love using garlic butter on my popcorn. I have been doing stovetop popcorn for a couple of decades but will give this a try
I always use a bowl and put a plate over it. Never thought of a bag. Hahaha. Thanks!
Well now I'm going to have to try a bowl with a plate over over it! 😁
Ooh, great tips. Thank you.
This method works great - no un-popped kernels - just make sure to fold down bag so that it doesn't contact top of oven and burn.
Great video. Thank you for the humor and the recipe. Very cool.
I’ve been doing this for sometime in the popcorn taste so wonderful. It’s also a lot less expensive than buying that packaged popcorn
Thanks so much for posting. Your blog looks amazing too. I need a healthy way to popcorn. I'm definitely buying some Orville and brown paper lunch bags.
Thanks for useful information, liked your picture of popcorn kernel! Like your Parmesan curry seasoning! Love how popcorn turned out! Movies time!😅🎥📺
Simple and great ty!
Looks good, thanks for the tips.
Thank you, wow!
Hello , what a great recipe. I'm making this one tonight.💖
Hey! I loved the style of your video - straight to the point, and the puns scattered throughout were great. I'm definitely trying this, I used to microwave the kernels in a bowl with unmelted butter, which would leave my bowl (and lid) super greasy and really hot to touch
I just put the dry corn kernels in a pot with olive oil, salt, and pepper powder. On medium and when I heart the 3rd pop I raise the flames to high and move the pot around until all are popped. Then open the cold water faucet and cool down the bottom of the pot.
Absolutely delicious
This video came at the perfect time. I have a lot of popcorn kernels and didn’t know what to do with them! The regular bag of popcorn looks so strange when you opened it. Definitely want to try this out now for sure. :)
so crunchy popcorn 🤗 perfect method 👍
I am definitely going to try ths.
Thank you!
Thank you for this recipe. I will never in my life by microwave popcorn again.❤❤❤❤❤
I have depression and anxiety and I was literally just crying and your video made me feel a lot better. Also, we’re really low income so this tip will help so much, thank you. 🙏🏻❤🌽
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰Thanks for sharing this simple, healthy, and quick easy yummy snack idea.
The pop corn looks wonderful!
Thanks very much!
Thanks, I never thought of adding the seasonings while the popped corn was still in the bag.
*Thanks, you changed the way I buy popcorn now.*
Hey, thank you!
I love how you made that that is awesome thank you for sharing this video have a fantastic day!!
I concur. Redenbacker is definitely worth the extra cost!! It's still about 25 to 50 cents a bag. I use an air popper, now I'm sold on microwaving my own! Thank you!
been trying a few different things,,,, some good seasoning choices BUTTERPLUS one of the following -- Ground fine Everything bagel, montreal steak seasoning, ADOBO Seasoning, lemon pepper with parm, and believe it or not buttered then sprinkled with nestle's quick.
This has to be a million times better than the store bought chemical stuff. Im loving the seasoning blend you added too! 😋
@PlasmaStorm73 [N5EVV] source?
@@markkeegan17 it's hydrogenated palm oil. The palm oil itself isn't that bad but the hydrogenated part keeps it shelf-stable and that's unhealthy and unpleasant.
its unhealthy but you guys are being idiots if you say it has a different mouthfeel than butter
Really like the insights into how bad the store bought stuff is. This is such a great way to make popcorn. Lots of butter and salt, and your spice blend is great too. I appreciate the kernels of truth in this recipe.
Thanks Geoff! I love the simplicity of this. I appreciate you popping in 😁
Wow super delicious . Thank you for sharing .
I just leaned the coolest thing today, Graham!! I never knew you could just pop popcorn in the microwave like that...I knew the classic bags were terrible for you but didn't know this little trick! I'm making this the next family movie night and that parm seasoning sounds oh so good!!
Agreed! I knew it could be done, but I just didn't know how to, believe it or not! More simpler than I would've thought 📺🍿👀
It's a fun trick for sure, I used to think it needed oil in there too to pop but nope! Thanks for watching 😀
Good idea😊
Im so excited to do this, but its 12:03am and i have labs this morning...im 3mins too late waaaH
@@Passionforfoodrecipes My biggest complaint is that it doesn't make up enough, LOL.
BTW, That looked like paprika, not curry, but I could be wrong (that happens A LOT!). Another way my family & I like it is with garlic mixed in with the parmesan cheese.
Thank You SO Much!
funny - I invented this over 20 years ago. I even submitted a tip about it to "Women's World' and they published it and I received compensation. So first I tried a large plastic bowl with a lid - didn't work just burned, then I tried a larger grocery paper bag, didn't work either just burned. Then I tried one of my children's smaller lunch sacks and it worked perfectly! No oil needed. Just be sure the top is securely folded down a few times so the popcorn doesn't escape while popping but don't bind it with a clip because the bag will burst out the other end. You must use a lunch paper sack size. Only use about 1/4 c to 1/3 c popcorn. Flatten it before putting it into the M/W and AS SOON as the popping stops take the bag out and empty into a bowl or the risidual heat will burn the popped corn in the middle of the bag. Enjoy my invention!
Its so mindless, less cleanup, the results between this and stovetop are identical… i enjoy making it on the stove but omg this is just fantastic.
My 5 year old just got home from school, asks for popcorn… i dont mind making it but if i can cut the time and cleanup so i can get back to work, great….
Lo and behold , this Godsend of a method 🎉😅
Been doing this for almost 40 years
I seen that in Women's World and I tried on numerous occasions. When I saw this I thought back to that article. He thinks he invented this or maybe he's just stating to do this instead and added his own seasoning. Ty
Been doing for years, Glad to see others avoiding those horrible popping bag things.
@@sharonswisher7274 “saw”
Thanks for sharing this!! Im going to make my popcorn this way from now on.
Thanks for watching Tee! Yeah I love this method, sometimes simple is best! 😃
Thanks so much works like a charm!!. Now I need to stock up on paper bags
WOW! I know how I'll be making 🍿 for now on. Thanks a bunch!!!
9th like 👍 Delicious Popcorn 🍿
Wow so easy and quick preparation
In microwave
Love the dad humor. I want to try this!
This inspired me to make toast with grape jelly 😋
I didn’t have any popcorn available 🤷♂️
But that bag o goop did not look appetizing.
I will keep this method in mind for when I do make popcorn 🍿
Maybe season with cinnamon and sugar 😋
Thank you,
I’ve just bought some of the those bags and now I’m slightly dubious of eating them ! Your popcorn looks delicious. Tfs
I can confirm that this is the best way to make popcorn! I've done it this way for years, and it works every time. I like to pour my butter down the sides of the bowl before I toss. I like the blend you used, no judgement from me. 😮😍
Thanks Resa! I'll have to try the pouring it down the sides method 😁
Thank you. I have three grand daughters I watch 5 days a week now that summer is here and lately the two youngest have been experimenting in the kitchen making messes for me to clean because they don't know clean from Papa's clean. Anyway, maybe this will interest them, they love popcorn. Again, thank you!
Chili powder is yummy too. Thanks for this video!
Oh yea these both look delicious 😋. I don’t like the microwave bags you buy in the store either. Thank you for sharing Graham. Have a great day. Full Watch
I will definitely try this
One of my fav snacks is popcorn; this was an enjoyable video, thanks!
thanks for his! i will get the Kernels the next time i go shopping here in Eugene Oregon!
Im in shock. 😮 i will do this from now on
Thanks
I’m trying this !
Been doing it this way for about 20 years. I use one staple to close it. perfectly safe to do so.
We are out of the store bought pre-made stuff. So I'm going to buy the paper lunch bags and change over. Thank you on the one staple idea in the microwave.
this is a good idea and a better alternative. doesn't take that much extra time. just heat up butter for a little bit.
I use a silicone bowl (from amazon) with lid to pop mine in the microwave. I add a little Redenbacher popcorn oil and use just a little ground sea salt. I had heard that the purchased bag version is not safe. However, I used to use it for years
I am definitely giving up on the pre- bagged chemical blends. Thanks for sharing and I will be trying your cheese mix.
I have a sort of melamine bowl with a plastic lid, made for microwaving popcorn. Used it for years.
Watching from the Philippines and will definitely try this.
I/3rd of a cup of popcorn... I'm glad I went back and checked, I'm definitely going to give this a go.
One day, I tried the bag I used to pop the store bought popcorn in. It worked. I will begin to use the brown paper bag now. I thought there had to be oil in the bag. Thanks!
A fav seasoning for me is nutritional yeast with salt and butter. Sometimes I’ll add a pinch of cayenne pepper. I’ve been popping on my stovetop for decades but am excited to try this! Thanks so much!
I'm going to have to try nutritional yeast now!
me too- I have been using it for yrs, delish
I do recall many years ago, Dr. Oz did this microwave popcorn in a paper bag, then added the nutritional yeast. So good.
Yummmm perfect popcorn
Two suggestions. Use pickling salt, which is very fine and sticks well, very much like McDonald's salt packets. Second, if you make clarified butter, cook it until the water evaporates and the milk solids start to caramelize. It will taste awesome.
SUPERr recipe thank you my friend😊
When microwaves first hit the commercial market, this was the one feature that was advertised......pop popcorn in a paper bag. That was the way everyone popped popcorn in a microwave.......until the pre-packaged stuff hit the market. Faster, easier won out over the brown bag.....Now you'll probably even have to buy your small brown bag. Prior to that....we just popped on the stovetop or used an electric popper......no bags or chemicals were harmed. Native Americans even used clay pots. After all.....they created popcorn.
Wow, an Education, and a Snack! 😁
Great video thanks!
Love these popcorn
A friend manages a movie theater here in Milwaukee. Her pro tip for pop corn is... Brewer's Yeast! Trust me
My favorite spice on popcorn is Season all……it’s great for corn on the cob also 😋😋😋😋
thanks
I had no idea the bags were bad for you. Duh! This is timely info for me. Thanks a bunch.
Great idea to pop your corn in the bag Graham, I must try this....
Nice flavours too, using the coffee grinder is also a super tip...
Have a fun week and I'll catchya again real soon....👋
Thanks for popping in Margaret!
Really good, my brudda, cos I stopped doing the paper bag trick because of the mess. Now that I know I can pop the corn without oil it's on again! Thanks!
