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 (250 ml) greater than stated above.

Note: DO NOT use more than 1⁄3 cup (75 ml) of unpopped kernels when using premium popcorn.

The seasoning possibilities for popcorn are endless. Just add melted butter and your favourite seasonings.

With toppings added, popped popcorn will become much crisper and the flavours become more intense if it is heated with desired toppings in a 300°F (150° C) 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.
