CAUTION: After popping, the plate is EXTREMELY HOT. Do not put fingers near the plate. After turning the bowl over to serve, simply return popping plate directly to the base. A slight odor or smoke may be evident as materials used in manufactur- ing are burned off internal parts. This is normal.

Note: Premium popcorns yield less, by about 2 cups.
The seasoning possibilities for popcorn are end- less. Just add melted butter and your favorite seasonings to a bowl of popcorn.
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 to 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.
