In the Kitchen: Popcorn
I love cooking and can successfully tackle just about any kitchen project except stovetop popcorn. For some reason, I can never get it right -- the popcorn turns out burned or underpopped with lots of "old maids" left in the bottom of the pot. But no more! The Whirley-Pop Stovetop Popcorn Popper is my popping salvation. Thanks to it, I make great popcorn every time. This neat, old-fashion popper has a clip-on lid with a stay-cool wooden handle. A turn crank on the handle spins the key element: the stainless steel stirring system that keeps the corn moving across the bottom of the pan, for even heat and oil distribution, ensuring the best popping results. The lid has steam vents, to help keep the popcorn dry and crisp. The results are wonderful -- especially if you use organic oil and popcorn. Top with some organic melted butter and sea salt and you'll be ready to munch happily away while snuggle under a blanket watching videos with your family or pets. And homemade kettle corn? Don't even get me started!The Whirley-Pop comes with a little recipe book for kettle corn and other wonderous treat that will have you popping all year long.

It is hard to make stovetop popcorn perfect, but I actually like it a little burnt. The Whirley-Pop sounds pretty neat.
Okay, we used a popcorn popper much like this one while I was growing up and it worked like a charm.
I have an electric popper with the same "circle mix arm" and it works just as well but I like the idea of flame and turning gears! :-) I've put this one on my wish list!
I wonder what made my Mother go for the shaking pot method of burning popcorn?!
Then came the hot air popper...all I have to say is dry and yuck! (I'm originally from the midwest and we are very picky about how our "corn" is served!:-)
We then moved into the microwave popcorn era...I just don't like my popcorn molecules to get that excited...especially when I am sitting down to a relaxing movie! :-) I don't even want to think about what "butter flavor" might be! :-(
