2.Place cover on popper base making sure handles of cover fit into handles of popper base. If buttered corn is desired, divide recommended amount of refrigerated butter into 6
3.Insert cord into popper base. Plug cord into a 120 volt, AC outlet only. The stir rod will rotate as long as the corn popper is plugged in. Do not shake popper during popping cycle. In 4 to 6 minutes (depending on quantity of corn being popped) the popping cycle will be completed. Unplug cord from wall outlet. Use a hot pad to remove cord from popper base.
4.If butter is not completely melted in butter well, use a pastry brush to push any remaining butter through the buttering holes.
5.Snap butter cap securely onto butter well. This cap must be on cover before popper is inverted. Make sure handles of cover are placed into handles of popper base. Grasp handles firmly and turn popper upside down, turning popper away from you. Lift popper base away from cover, being careful of escaping steam.
6.Popcorn is now ready for serving. Sprinkle popcorn with
salt if desired.
Popping Additional Batches of Popcorn - If you plan to pop more corn immediately, transfer popcorn from serving cover to another serving bowl. Follow steps 1 through 6 above.
HELPFUL HINTS
•Always use fresh popcorn. Dried out, stale, or old popcorn pops poorly as it has lost its moisture content and may scorch.
•Store popcorn in airtight containers made of glass or plastic to avoid moisture loss in the kernels. Be sure that the container is stored in a cool place, do not store in the refrigerator. Most refrigerators contain little moisture and can dry out kernels, resulting in poor popping.
•This popcorn popper can accommodate both regular and premium popcorns. Premium and gourmet popcorns do not yield results as good as regular popcorn. If premium or gourmet popcorn is used, you may notice an increase in the number of unpopped kernels.
•If popcorn does not pop, it is usually the result of environmental factors such as the freshness and moisture content of the popcorn, or variances by popcorn type. Unpopped kernels do not necessarily indicate a defect in the appliance.
•Instead of popping with vegetable oil, try one of these healthy choices, extra virgin olive oil, canola oil, coconut oil, corn oil, peanut oil, or sunflower oil. Specialty oils may also be used, but some experimentation may be necessary to find the best popping results and flavor you prefer. Do not use more than 3 tablespoons of any oil.
•Add flavor to your oil while popping - add a garlic clove or minced garlic, onion slices, or jalapeño peppers.
•When done popping, start layering flavors. We find a light misting of olive oil, (many great infused olive oils are also available) lemon or lime juice, balsamic vinegar, or even water will help any additional seasonings adhere to the corn.
