Easiest Way to Make Movie Theatre Popcorn Salt

Microwave Popcorn

The winking lizard restaurant gives unlimited popcorn away for free, but the movie theater charges crazy amounts for it.

Recipe Summary Microwave Popcorn

Believe it or not, you can make your own delicious, low-fat microwave popcorn using standard popping corn and a brown paper lunch bag. It works perfectly.

Ingredients | Movie Theatre Popcorn Salt

½ cup unpopped popcorn

1 teaspoon vegetable oil

½ teaspoon salt, or to taste

Directions

In a cup or small bowl, mix together the unpopped popcorn and oil. Pour the coated corn into a brown paper lunch sack, and sprinkle in the salt. Fold the top of the bag over twice to seal in the ingredients.

Cook in the microwave at full power for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes, or until you hear pauses of about 2 seconds between pops. Carefully open the bag to avoid steam, and pour into a serving bowl.

A few kernels will remain unpopped. Longer cooking may pop the rest, but will burn some of the already-popped kernels, so it is not recommended.
