How To Pop Popcorn On The Stove

[MrGrowproductions]

Great video I bought kernels at whole foods for like 1 dollar a pound best easiest snack to make.

[MsBmx25]

Need flavacol and coconut oil and buttery topping and finally sea salt

[HungS2Ha]

great!



[nicolette151]

thanks yum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!

[Matsuyamanokage]

Hello! Thanks for the video. :)

The last time I tried I used butter... which is to say that butter does not go into the pot at the same time as the pocorn! lol Oops. I burnt it.

This time I used olive oil and your technique and it worked! Yay, no more black and white popcorn! :D

[rossuk123]

Do more vids. My fiancee and I have just made buttery popcorn :)

[dingski]

I burnt the bottom of my pan on previous attempt but after watching your video and using oil this time it worked brilliantly - thanks!

[ODRCOL]

She looks so sexual.

[scottylans]

Excuse me fairly attractive lady but t he coolest goddamn thing in your video is your PURPLE hotplate, what's the deal yo? That is awesome :)

[GummiHug]

My step dad uses coconut oil, and it gives the popcorn this AMAZINGLY tropical taste. It's sweeter, and I like it like that. Also another upside to popping your own popcorn (college kids) is that IT'S CHEAPER THAN BUYING PRE-MADE, as are so many other things, like limeade and lemonade.

One question though: I have a pot, but I don't have a lid with a steam hole. Is there a way I can substitute? I DO have a strainer that fits over the top...

[lizriz]

@GummiHug OMG, I can't believe I never thought to try coconut oil! As for the pot cover, my one with the vent broke, so I've been using a plain pot lid, and just kinda holding it loosely and letting the steam out as I go.

[verkoopprijs]

I was looking for a way to let more of the kernels pop because at least a third doesn't pop. Seeing you I think I know what I can do. A little clumsy, still very charming. Thumbs up!

[firerock2245]

u will need: popcorn maker, kernels.

step 1.pour in oil

step 2 dump in kernels

step 3. turn on popper

step 4. enjoy

[blessedcotk]

loved your video I use an old pressure cooker pot (that I lost the lid to). pop corn comes out great and it is truly economical besides i don't have a microwave nor do I want one. Happy popping!!!

[dondeperdido]

Moved my art studioto Europe Ten years ago and have acclimated very well after all these years. Now saying that, tonight I felt homesick. I dont know why but I wanted some american style pop corn, non- sugared, (the germans love it sugared) . Anyway I forgot how to make non-microwave pop corn ha-ha. Typed it into youtube and you came up. Your video made me laugh. Thank you for the reminder and the laugh. Nameste

[cronochos]

microwave popcorn sucks! pot popcorn for life! lol

[TheKaveman314]

So good, cheap and healthy. check out this link for a new popcorn popper inspired by a Alton Brown, vote to get it madewww.quirky.com/ideations/1­40165

[HerseyBoy101]

Her eyes are glossy :)

[PaintSlinger99]

my shits oiley!!!!!!

[hrabby87]

thanks! that was really useful and just made my first pot of popcorn ;D

[magicswaper]

i love how your so happy! and your enthusiasm hehe, i always burn my popcorn, i guess its the oil, im going to try canola oil now.

[9LittleFoot9]

i wasnt planning on actually making popcorn ...because i havent made dinner yet...but i think im going to have popcorn for dinner because of this video :)

[arcitegyre]

great video. I remember doing this when I was young, then I switched to microwave (for some weird reason) if your city has a Co-op or similar store, you can buy the popcorn by the pound. it's way better than the pre-packaged ones.

[justxboredx3]

yumm i made it youre right about how good it is

[jmnader]

i am so impressed with myself! and it's all thanks to your video! my local UK store didn't have the microwave bags and i had SUCH a craving for popcorn. this is delicious. i even used olive oil cause that was all i had, and it was fine :). THANK YOU!

[MrWakako1]

what happen if you use the pop corns from the microwave bag?

[ayeedreww]

Is olive oil okay ?

[ColoradoKing26]

@PeterSamiOto I think its the camera. I had a friend oven that look like that, but it was the camera making it look purple, when it was really red.

[Spacemonkeymojo]

Can you just add salt to the oil before popping the popcorn? What about popping the popcorn in butter?

[arnity123]

I always want to do this but I'm too scared that I will pour too little or too much butter/salt...

[SeeburgMusic]

I loved your video. You are fuckin funny too. Try popping it with Parkay Squeeze margarine! Yummy! Also, little know fact... popping it with bacon grease is A-FUCKIN-MAZING!!! OMG so good!!!! Anyway, i noticed your Calrod glows purple.... what's up with that?? Cool! So thank you for the video! Oh and PS to all the stupid people-- if your pot is smoking or burning you have your heat too high or you're not shaking the pot or BOTH! God damn people come on!!!

[Hdsnlprk]

What an annoying fucking laugh!!

[EstherMadueke123]

erghhh your laugh is so annoying chill its just popocorn LOL

[SwaggaLeo]

fucked up the first time...second time went perfect...i only watched the first 1:05 though....trial and error...

[davecmacdonald]

Great video. I've got some expensive, heavy bottom pots and was worried about scratching, but if I can lift it off the burner, I'm set. That's exactly what I was wondering so thanks for covering all the bases here for folks in different situations. The only thing to add is which oils won't smoke. :)

[thirdlucila]

I love the video but I hate the ending part

[drmoha82]

still burns :( i tried alot ,some comes white some comes burnt .. :(:(

[alishadoggie21]

but regular popcorn, the one you're using, IS THRICE microwave popcorn's price. REALLY PRICY THERE AAYYY ? sticking to microwave :(

[davecmacdonald]

@alishadoggie21 Check the ingredients and some of the health issues for folks who have worked in factories making microwave popcorn. She just made popcorn - microwave popcorn is a low-cost, engineered popcorn-like semi-edible substance. Totally worth the price difference if you've got one at your store.

[Ashtree81]

FAIL

my kitchen is full of smoke... oh well

[lizriz]

@Ashtree81 What kind of oil did you use? Did you shake the pot? And remove it from the heat when it stopped popping?

[Ashtree81]

@lizriz

Rapeseed oil

The smoke came before it started popping actually, I might have used to much corn I think

Your tutorial was great, the blame is on me =)

[lizriz]

@Ashtree81 :) It may have been the oil. Try using sunflower oil, or vegetable oil. I use sunflower these days, and it works great. Some oils smoke in high heat.

[Ashtree81]

@lizriz

Ill try different oil then.

Thank for the advice!

[cronochos]

@Ashtree81 lol RAPE

[Yori38]

Thank you for your awesomely fun video! I got a bag of popcorn as a present and I wasn't sure how to cook it, so thanks for helping!

[doctaLB]

You're sexy btw ;)

[apexiatpbreview]

Can I pop your corn?

[CDSherwood81]

If you want microwave popcorn without the grossness, put two TBSP of popcorn in a paper lunch sack , and fold over the top tightly two or three times and put it in the microwave on the popcorn setting. I learned this from Alton Brown. He recommends stapling the bag, but I never have and it works fine. I haven't found it necessary to add oil unless I want it for flavoring, and then I don't have to have one of those air poppers.

[lizriz]

@CDSherwood81 What a neat idea, thank you!

[PaperMs]

you can use Any Oil :)

[lizriz]

@PaperMs I'm not sure if that's true because of the different smoke points of oils? It's difficult to imagine using olive oil or grape oil for popcorn. Although I have switched to sunflower oil myself.

[PaperMs]

@lizriz like car oil?

[lizriz]

@PaperMs Ha! Yes, please don't try to pop your popcorn in car oil.

[PaperMs]

@lizriz k :]

[troyacummings]

Thank you.



[lizriz]

@troyacummings You're welcome!  :)

[DeadlikeaPixel]

lol why is your burner purple? LOL

[viczai]

does it have to be the popcorn kernels or can it be regular kernels bought at a farmers market place?

[lizriz]

@viczai I think you want to buy kernels labeled as popcorn.

[xLOVEtee]

My mother and I tried this recipe and it's absolutely fantastic! Thank you so much :) Such a more healthier option than the microwave! Not to mention your bubbly personality as well!

[lizriz]

@xLOVEtee Thank you! :)

[AGreedyTree]

shes so bubbly

[lizriz]

@AGreedyTree :)

[itsmediego]

Haha that was really good :-) I cooked it whilst following the video and it was v entertaining - thanks!

[lizriz]

@itsmediego Awesome!

[danis4212]

Miss Liz, how to do a easier salted popcorn? xause im not that good cooker

[lizriz]

@danis4212 Have you tried it? Be brave! :)

[Themeparkdude1]

This is going to just sound flat out odd from a stranger. But fantastic attractive personality. Thanks for the upbeat personality with the video.

[lizriz]

@Themeparkdude1 Thank you! That's sweet of you to say. :)

[jodicen]

@lizriz i put this vid in my favorites just because of your personality( so when will we get to see you on tv!!)

[BARJRD]

I love it!

[adamson001]

give a thumb up for popcorn lovers

[ChipotleKidd27]

im 13 and i did this, so the 3 people who couldnt do this are retards.

[mrsbemis]

Thanks for this video, you make it look super easy. I've only ever made Jiffy pop, and stuff on the air popper. Does this method taste anything like those two at all? Meh, either way, I'm gonna give this way a shot. Thanks again!

[getback961]

Love how u said "the end!"

[LJE3]

Cool burners

[iheart3elvis]

I just tried this and got a whole bowl of yummy fluffy popcorn! I didn't have a pot with a vent, but I used a pot with a glass lid so whenever I saw it was fogging up,I opened it SLIGHTLY to let steam out(careful though,don't burn yourself!)

And I always find when I just shake some salt,it always just goes to the bottom of the bowl. So,after I took out the popcorn I warmed a little bit of oil in the same pot, then poured it over the popcorn and added salt, and then shook the popcorn around :)

[danis4212]

i just put a popcorn seeds into a normal big bag that a better idea. :)

[mangapuy]

yeah i want a "porn corn" video

[rubslotionskin]

@mangapuy  /watch?v=P4lYMFiwABI

[my89tube]

hello liz, Ma says im not old enough to use to the stove, the fuck am i supposed to do?

[jackonmsn]

@my89tube how old are you that your not allowed use a stove, but can use the internet ?

[kendims]

Thanks! I added a bit of cayenne and cinnamon to spice it up. Every other time I tried I burned it, but by heating the oil a little first and shaking it i was able to avoid that!

[BixZsc]

first, microwave popcorn is delicious. so you suck, second you definitely have sex hair...

[trumpetboii]

[Delcaroll]

[2paclove2]

@5027196 i bet your girlfriend is a half witch,half pig that is if you have one

[Roycepri]

HI Liz, I love the butter lovers flavor for the microwave Act II range. Do I add butter instead of the oil? do I add it after its popped or do I mix it with the oil before popping?

[lizriz]

@Roycepri If you want to add butter you melt it in a pot on the stove and then pour it over the popped popcorn. Superyum!

[Roycepri]

@lizriz Thank you, Yes yum!! Cheers from New Zealand!

[char675]

you have pretty feet. You keep the toe nails yellow color free!!!

[monica6699]

loved the video. Great laugh!!! :)

[zwarts123]

somthing about making popcorn is so much fun

[MrBlue609]

you look so high.....

[kozas0]

i just throw it on the pot and it pops. no shaking no oil no salt. is there anything wrong with that? sorry i am a man, i don't know much about cooking

[lizriz]

@kozas0 lol You know, I think that the oil makes it pop up more fluffy, and the shaking is just to distribute the heat and keep it from burning. But if what you're doing works, then it works, you know?

[lizriz]

Hi Klarinetta, I've found that I can actually use less oil with popcorn I buy out of the bin at my local natural food market. (Like a Whole Foods, but I go to a place called Henry's.) Anyway, with this popcorn I use 1 tablespoon oil for 1/4 cup popcorn. So if you try a different popcorn, maybe an organic popcorn from a natural food market, you may be able to get away with less oil.

[klarinetta]

I mean I eat healthy fat-free food and 1 tablespoon of oil(Isio or Wesson) and no butter at all makes for over 20% fat in my food and fat should not be more than 20% with carbohydrate 40-50% and protein 30-40%.

[klarinetta]

Is there no way of making a popcorn without using so much oil ? I've tried 50/50 water and oil mixed in a spray bottle and it works really great for frying food but when I tried it with popcorn in a pot it didn't pop at all and just started to burn. I tried 1 tablespoon didn't work either and it just did not work until I used over 2 tablespoons of oil and I think it's way too much.

[emilygoesMOO]

I popped some for the first time right after watching this and it came out great. Don't think I'll be going back to the mircowave stuff again now.

[saveme2000]

this works

[stamatismoul]

thanks!

[help4itouchman]

I made this right after i saw the video it was pretty fun to watch

[JohnnyX50]

I really enjoyed watching the vid =] Thanks lizriz !

Im in UK and I don't think I have seen regular kernels in any of our supermarkets ( they sell the nasty microwave stuff and I know what you mean about trying to add melted butter to it, eww its just a mess), but I am going to try hunt some down because I really want to try this! It looks fun =] Thanks again!

[Thetruthishere11]

peanut oil or coconut oil is best.

[dummy1977]

If they only had one of those blue and peach colored popcorn makers around here ; )

[cjcool91]

way better and its healthier

[gwinvader3]

Hey girl looking great in blue, New Oil and No Bowl, Salt it right after you open the lip, LOL

[realitychick7]

I'm so in the mood for fresh popcorn! ...out to the store to buy some kernels.. :)

[1slipping1]

my pop corn won't pop as big as yours what am i doing wrong

[lizriz]

You know, it may be the brand. In the video I used Orville Redenbacher, but now at home I have this organic popcorn I bought and it doesn't pop up as fluffy at all.

[1slipping1]

thnx for that. You was right.

I spent a little extra got some nicer poping ones thnx.

[Roycepri]

@lizriz HI Liz, I love the butter lovers flavor for the microwave Act II range. Do I add butter instead of the oil? do I add it after its popped or do I mix it with the oil before popping?

[mrdipallins]

if you put the salt in with the oil at the beginning then the popcorn gets flavor cooked into it and its really tasty! and stove top popcorn is so much more fun because you can experiment with different flavors and techniques to see which kind you like the best!

[cheerscomments]

I tried with olive oil but didn't work out. I don't know if it is oil related or not. Any body knows?

[8181k]

@cheerscomments

olive oil would probably burn at the very high temperatures you need to make popcorn

also olive oil has a strong flavor which may ruin the taste of the popcorn

i would go with a milder oil. sunflower is probably the best choice.

[lizriz]

Olive oil has a very low smoke point (when oil begins breaking down due to heat), so it's not ideal for popping popcorn where you need the oil to be really hot.

[wolfman157]

Aw Yes! It Was Awsome! Thx For The Help! =D

[wolfman157]

Hmm This Is My 1st Time Poping PopCorn With Out Using The Micro lol

[MizzBrinda]

her coil is purple! hahah amazing

great vid btw too =)

[hippymobster]

i generally air pop my popcorn, but i will do this when im not around my air popper. its also much healthier than microwave. (still not as healthy as air popped) that is unless u pour oil and salt all over it. i like it plain just as well.

the oil thing was rather amusing btw

[810retur]

what happens if we use olive oil

[shoronie]

hahha you're cute:-) And now I know how to pop real popcorn, thanks!

[cluerocs217]

THE END hehe heugh!

[hnegross]

Kids these days don't know good popcorn- they think that microwave stuff is good. HA!...now I just need to melt some butter....

Thanks for taking the time to make this vlog, I was about to call my mother, because my 7 year old son had a hankering for a movie and popcorn. THis was so much quicker, and I didn't have to hear about her complain about neighbors

[zihuetlachtli]

you know i missed pop corn so much, ´cause here in germany you don´t get the real stuff, and finally i got some natural pop corn, so i was ready to cook it and i burn it.

i feelt so stupid, i used to do it as a kid all the time and now...NOW I´M A USELESS GUY WHO DON´T KNOW HOW TO POP CORN

but thanks to you tonight ain´t gonna be a lonely night

[Zolg08]

your popcorn kernels are supplied by a corporate....

[ViETxSOULJAx]

LOL!! while watching this vid i was eating microwave popcorn xD

[tiptoemammal]

Thank you!! I'm off to pop now.

[skillsondec]

my microwave broke so...ur tha best

[GHPRO25]

So I'm going to try this and if my house burns down you can buy me a new one. :)

Something with an indoor pool.... maybe a bowling alley and an entire closet full of popcorn seeds... yes I'm a junky.

So, that being said... let's go get a free house... I mean popcorn! let's go get popcorn :D

[lizriz]

LOL How'd it go? :)

[nph01234]

Liz, You inspire me.

[lizriz]

Awesome, bittermang! Enjoy!

[bittermang]

Thanks to you lizriz, and Mr. Reddenbacher, I just enjoyed a bowl of fresh stove top popped corn. It didn't take any longer than microwaved popped corn, and every single kernel popped with no burning.

Thank you.

[lizriz]

nesossin - Butter is yum!

Mriietube - I shake the pan to distribute the heat and to the kernels around in the oil. And because my mother always shakes the pan. So I'm not sure if it's a must, really, but I think it does increase the popping speed and make sure everything pops up. I can't imagine a stove top that couldn't take a little pan shaking. :)

[Mriietube]

how come you're shaking the pan? does that affect the popping-speed?

btw, what does your pan-top look like after this? hehe.. Is it important to have a good resistant top, or is that not imporant?

[nesossin]

I'm a pig, i use butter..

[lizriz]

Hey, thanks! And yum! :)

[lebammabel]

Good job. If you will add little bit sugar to pan and shake pan little bit more than you did, you will get nice sweet popcorn.
